    Alright, I'm going with Mexico winning 2-1...

    I think 3 1.

    Scare early on followed by a pasting. Or a pasting followed by a consolation goal. On or the other.

    And Mexico only brought 3 midfielders.

    Seriously, it's like 3 goal keepers, 8 defenders, 8 forwards and 3 midfielders.

    That's awesome. How can you not like Mexico?

    pfffft. You can hold up your FACTS and your STATISTICS but I know what I read on WIKIPEDIA.
    :lol:

    Is this the point in the match where Sepp Blatter says "Gentlemen, start your engines?"

    So, is this the official World Cup thread or are we supposed to use the actual soccer thread instead?

    Is it?
    *goes to give it a shot since ESPN3's is mediocre at best*

    I say we use this thread for play by play discussion and the other thread for overall comments

    Are any of you guys watching the espn3.com stream? They just cut to two shots of huge empty sections of the stadium. What's up with the empty seats?

    It's a 70,000+ seat stadium right?

    Univision stream is noticeably better, but the espn3 stream is at the lowest quality level (probably because its the first match and its swamped) so that might not be true long term

    If it sells out it'll be the best attended world cup game since 94 (US smashed and still holds all attendance records) at something like 95K

    ESPN3 is about 1 second ahead of univision for me

    Apparently about 90k people there.

    Also, Rafa Marquez and Salcido with short hair. O_o

    EDIT: Or maybe they meant a 90k seater.

    Thank god for atdhe.net!

    Rooting for Bafana Bafana. Hopefully they'll get the same homefield advantage that Japan, South Korea and even the US had before. They did scare the crap out of Spain a year ago so it is possible.
