The interlull is finally over and the landscape has settled for most of the teams headed to the World Cup in Brazil. Mexico’s blushes were saved by a generous USA side who had the mercy to put a couple past Panama in stoppage time to send Mexico to the playoff against New Zealand.
Many Americans would have rather seen Mexico out, but I’m happy to see them get another chance(I’m half Mexican). The shame amongst Mexican fans is palpable, Americans saving their tails in World Cup qualifying is a new low for Mexican football and the Mexican media won’t be quick to forgive or forget judging by the publications in the past few days.
Joining me to break down all the qualifying action are @ihateyourclub and @PhilSchoen of beIN SPORT fresh from the call of the USA – Panama match.
