HALF TIME!
HT: Saudi Arabia 0-0 Mexico
Madre mía, what a half of football. Mexico have been relentless in attack, and looked like they have the potential to score 50 goals – the only that is wrong is that they can’t. I don’t know why, but things are just not falling for them so far.
Apart from the header in the last seconds, El Tri have not let Saudi Arabia have a sniff of the ball. The Asian side have tried their best to keep ahold of the ball but for the majority of the game they have instead tried to stop Mexico from using them as training cones.
Mexico’s plan of hitting Chucky and Sánchez over the top has worked to an extent, but I feel if they maintain the pressure from across the front line and continue to keep Kanno under wraps, then that is how they are going to find the most joy. Something must fall their way eventually, surely…
But at the moment, it’s Saudi Arabia who are one goal away from coming top of the group.
