Can we start drinking the haterade?

Changing Lahm for Kimmich is like changing a lamborghini for a scooter. 

Changing Werner for Klose...

Mexico leading... 

Are we witnessing the potential fall of the German Empire....

Just they've flattered to deceive in previous tournaments and have exited early in the knockouts.

Having said that, given the efficiency that Germans are usually known for, I don't think anyone expected Mexico to play this good.

Just hope they keep it up for the 2nd half!

 

Yes I remember the 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Chile in the Copa very well. An aberration of a result. 

As is this one?? We'll see!!

[Samuel Eto'o]

Reus to the Reuscue!

[SirBalon]

Offside? 

[El Profesor]

Osorio subbed his two most dangerous players off and left Chicharito in. Their attack lost the bite they had in the 1st half. This could be costly.

[Guest]

Great pass to Chicharito but that was a penalty. Poor from the ref.

The Mexicans are dead. They’re really tired now and slowly slowly are sitting further deep. 

[Bluewolf]

Either those Mexicans are midgets or Boateng is a big lad... Like Jonah Lomu coming forward there... 

[Stan]

Mexico look absolutely knackered. Not surprised with the shift they've put in so far.

This is where Germany could get themselves back in the game. No surprise Marquez is coming on either. Extra defender in the box for when Germany throw the kitchen sink in

What if they had given that outside while the counter was still on and then checked through VAR that it wasn't ?

True. I don’t know what’s going on but that wasn’t offside.

[Bluewolf]

What is the average height of a Mexican does anyone know?? The more I watch them the more I expect to see Snow White urging them to push forward on the sidelines... 

[Bluewolf]

Thought that was in for a second...

5"4

[Bluewolf]

Doubt Mexico are going to be able to keep Germany at bay the way things are going at the moment... 

[Stan]

last ditch defending at its finest. Not sure what else Germany could do up against that Mexican wall.

Are you sure they are that tall??

Just googled that and this said on the first site on results, doesn't seem true

Just seen it... 0.4

[Bluewolf]

Hold on Mexico, hold on... 

[Stan]

fucking hell Mexico. that was such an easy ball to put through

[Inverted]

Mexico should be out of sight here.

[SirBalon]

Mexico may have scored but their final ball in terms of passing and shooting is awful. 

[Kowabunga]

Even if Layún is missing lot of chances it's important for México that Layún is finishing their plays in the counter.
