Come on Eto'o! Make it rain goals!
As a Latino in NY, I love my Mexicanos but I am so sick of Univision's sports caster pandering to their Mexican viewers. You would think Mexico is winning the whole tournament watching just a few mins of this station. Hopefully they don't survive this round.
Cam - Mex 2-1

I didn't tune in to the hour-long build up because I was expecting the second part of the Rickie Lambert story.
Is every game going to have an hour long build up? It's ridiculous. There's nothing to discuss that takes an hour.

agreed. plenty of other legit reasons to hate Mexico.
What's funny is that they aren't even showing the England game.

The overall consensus of media and fans here is that Brazil played better and deserved to win, but the way it happened was not right (regarding the penalty). Some people are trying way too hard to find other mistakes made by the referee tho, but the only clear cut one was the penalty.
I still think that if Croatia had kept attacking after the first scored they could have scored again, but they forgot attacking after that.
Two things media people keep talking about here:
1) This same referee supposebly robbed Brazil of a penalty against Netehrlands in 2010 in the match that eliminated Brazil. I don't remember the play tho.
2) In 2002, the last Brazil WC title, Brazil won the first match 2-1 against Turkey also using a wrong called penalty (on luizão, scored by rivaldo). Nobody seems to remember that.
For those away from a TV right now, live feed has started here:

Well, it is Univision. Not sure what else you can expect. Regardless the actual cast of the game has been just fine, and since I've been at work for the opener yesterday and the first 2 games today, their online stream is fantastic.
ITV are just regurgitating England news for the first part then we have about 10 minutes discussing the actual game! Hope BBC don't do another wankfest over England in the Spain game tonight.

I agree
but I don't hate them.... Mexico Mexico... Actually wait I do hate the way they play. Neymar has nothing on the Mexican dive team and they usually play dirty (they remind me of the Italian league teams).ShinRPGamer

I think that last one has more to do with Rivaldo sending a Turkish player off with his playacting overshadowing the penalty.
Still interesting to know how the winner's feel about lousy referring in their favour. Usually you hear about the falling out with the team that gets screwed over like the women's semi's between Canada and the U.S.
Giovanni Dos Santos.
He's incredibly fast and great at handling the ball.
Plus look at this amazing goal!

Go Cameroon
While as much as I want my fellow CONCALAFF bros to do well, I then remember entitled fucks like David Faitelson and co. and wish to see them decimated
What is Faitelson up to these days. Fuck, I haven't watched Mexican TV in forever. Is he still Jose Ramon's lapdog?
Plus, Hon vs Mex has been a growing rivalry for years now, so I don't believe you want us to do well ;P
The Onion's World Cup Players to Watch slideshow is amazing. Just a taste of the greatness:
Cristiano Ronaldo
Strength: Hair gel slathered all over body allows him to easily slip away from defenders
Weakness: Shy in front of cameras
Biggest Fan: Mirrors
Favorite Player From Childhood: Cristiano Ronaldo
Lionel Messi
Strength: Has enough money to order pretty much whatever he wants when out at a restaurant
Weaknesses: Looks especially tiny on soccer’s biggest stage; Low center of gravity would be useless in weightless environment of space
Trademark Goal Celebration: Staring blankly at teammates while standing quietly
Favorite Part Of World Cup: Incredible feeling of pride playing for country he hasn’t lived in since he was 12
Neymar
Strengths: Is Brazilian but doesn’t have to live there; Dives after every loose ball
Biggest Secret: Actually thinks Brazilian protesters make some very good points
Time He’ll Spend In Brazil After World Cup Is Over: 17 Minutes
Clint Dempsey
Strengths: Has veteran poise that young U.S. squad needs to remain composed in face of crushing defeat; Equally adept with both left and right elbows
Weakness: Captain of the U.S. men’s soccer team
Best Attribute: Special knack for scoring late consolation goals
Greatest Accomplishment: Convinced Jurgen Klinsmann he is actually 20-year-old German player
Future Plans: Watch World Cup knockout rounds from comfort of home in Seattle

I am going into the Mexico-Cameroon game with the same mindset i go into every Mexico game.
Fuck Mexico.
Cameroon 2 - Mexico 1.
Fuck Mexico.
Cameroon 2 - Mexico 1.
This is maybe the last time we take part as Spain, so I hope we do something great
Will you be cheering for Cataluña next WC?
This tropical storm is more Cameroon-esque than Mexico though.

Moved away from L.A. last year so I haven't caught any ESPN in a while, but last I saw him he said "Mexico va pasar la hexagonal caminando"
Cronometro with Joserra is GOAT though
Will you be cheering for Cataluña next WC?
I have to decide this. I hope we do not break up and we get into a Republic XD but well time will say XDXD
While as much as I want my fellow CONCALAFF bros to do well, I then remember entitled fucks like David Faitelson and co. and wish to see them decimated
Nowadays he is very negative about the expectations the team has, I mean how can you think otherwise when they struggled so much and were gifted the ticket to the WC, even he can't deny that they didn't deserve it.
