Oh my goodness...Argentina - Mexico!

[phyncke]

Hotly contested goal here by Argentina, who was off side....meaning up field too much and ahead of the D. The thing that is happening with the refs here is that they are not using any replay technology for their stuff here and they could not see that from the field. We have the TV angles and can see it all here but the refs are running on the field and cannot see it really. Too bad for Mexico. This kind of thing can tip the balance. That is too bad, really. I like both teams here and just want it to be a good game. The players were SO upset by that on both sides really. Just a huge disarray there during that call.

So watching here. I am truly addicted to the World Cup. Skipping the farmer's market (well I am broke this week) but this is too good to miss. :P Will update.

So...right now ---

Argentina 3 Mexico 1 (Final)

Impressions:

-OMG -- Argentina just scored! What a score...nothing but net there. Not out of reach for Mexico but an uphill battle now and Argentina usually takes a lead and goes with that.
-Really nice goal by Mexico, the player who they nickname - "little sweet thing". That is totally cute. High on the net and the Argentine goalie looked flatfooted there...totally surprised by it. It was a strong kick to the back of the net but high on the goal...
-Mexico needs to pour it on...
-Missed the end of the game!

That call has totally affected this game and the refs are all powerful here.

Cheers.
