(Higuain 33')
MEXICO - 1
(J Hernandez 71')
Like Angra said, we had 2 fantastic matches today. Although they were pretty much dominated by one side in each match, nevertheless it produced some very impressive football from all 4 sides involved.
And the second goal from Carlos Tevez in this match is undoubtedly the best goal of the WC so far.
Mexico and England gave it their best shot, but eventually the teams with the more aggressive attacks on goal took the wins. Both losing teams need to find better defenders.
And FIFA needs to find some goddamn good referees. Disallowing the crystal clear goal by Frank Lampard in the first match, then allowing Carlos Tevez's first goal when he was clearly offside in the second match, pretty much sums up the refereeing in this World Cup so far. It feels like schoolkids have worn an uniform and come to become a ref here. Is FIFA listening yet?
And, like I mentioned, Argentina take on Germany in the Quarter-Finals. What a explosive treat that promises to be now!
