[Massimo]

guys watch the game... Argentina had 5 100% chances, Colombia had like 3.

Great game.

how much did you lose?

-382 euro

Good draw for us. Not happy with theplay but I guess its ok considering the red card and injuries.

We played without our "10", lost James, played Cuadrado out of position, and had to adjust our strategy due to the red card.

Ospina is such an underrated keeper. Dude is legit

[J-Mezzy]

What did you guys think about Ospina?

[5DOM]

Mascherano, what a moron

I am sorry but some European national teams would destroy every single S. American national teams at the moment. Awful games.

I seriously doubt that any European team other than Spain and Germany would destroy Colombia or Argentina. It is hard to explain to Europeans, but Conmebol games are like SEC football. They are gritty, ugly games and every game is tough regardless of the opponent. There is a reason many S. American teams always make the quater finals. As a matter of fact, we had Uruguay, Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay reach the quarters last WC.

Remember that unstoppable Brazil team in 2002? They finished 3rd in Conmebol standings and qualified on the last game on a must win game at home vs Venezuela. Even games involving that loaded squad were ugly. Same with 2006 and 2010.

I am not saying S American teams are the best, but you can't use Conmebol qualifyers as the measure to rate the teams because those games will ALWAYS be ugly. Just what you get when you have poor field conditions, severe crowd atmosphere, poor refereeing, and heated rivalries. You also have a lot of hot headed players acting like fools and making the game ugly.

Watching Mexico play the hex has been one of the most frustrating things I've seen in a while, and I'm a Jazz fan.

[J-Mezzy]

Mexico struggling at home! I would be amazed if they miss the WC, amazed.

Mexico tied 0-0 at home vs Costa Rica. What the hell has happened to Mexico?

[edfmx86]

[J-Mezzy]

Peru is not going to make it. There are still seats open on the Colombia bandwaggon

[El Turco]

well if i go i would be going with two mexicans and meet with couple peruvian friends over there, maybe if i find a colombian girl on my way

[edfmx86]

With how poorly Mexico is playing now, don't surprised they come out do something spectacular in the comings day....I'm predicting a loss in the Confederation's Cup final....

Just mention that you are a Turkish investor who bases his business in the U.S and you should not have any trouble finding prime Colombian vagina.

lol

if we can't get results against teams like Panama and Costa Rica, how can you predict that we are going to the finals???

Especially with a MASSIVE IDIOT of a head coach in CHEPO leading the charge???

I'm predicting 3 and out or better yet 3 ties lol olololol

FIRE CHEPO FIRE CHEPO

[KF10]

Mexico tied 0-0 at home vs Costa Rica. What the hell has happened to Mexico?

Chepo happened.

Plays a counter attacking, defensive style with no real counter attacking threat.
Build up play is SOO SLOW.
OVER RELYING on the wings.
Predictable attack smh

FIRE CHEPO
