us falls in azteca

On August 12, 2009, in Sports, by Henshaw

I just finished watching the Mexicans defeat the United States 2-1 in Mexico City. After the Confederations Cup this game got a lot more attention than normal. I’ve been watching the US play a lot over the years and I thought this was our best showing on Mexican turf. It was a must win game for Mexico if they want to qualify for the World Cup.
It would have been nice if the US had won, but it’s not a big deal. The US wins 3-2 on aggregate scoring. We won 2-0 at home and it wasn’t really even close. It would be nice if the Mexican fans at the game would behave with more class. It’s a shame that fans are throwing objects at players during the game.
Overall I don’t have any complaints other than some player choices.
