Those are the two fastest goals I’ve seen.
Didn’t Germany do something similar in their 7-1 game? Let me look.
I know they scored 5 goals in 29 minutes of play.
Germany scored at:
- 23’ (0-2): Miroslav Klose scores off a rebound after his initial shot is saved, becoming the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup history.
- 24’ (0-3): Toni Kroos hammers a left-footed strike from the edge of the box.
- 26’ (0-4): Toni Kroos capitalizes on a Brazilian turnover to tap in his second goal in a matter of minutes.
- 29’ (0-5): Sami Khedira finishes a pass from Mesut Özil to cap off an unbelievable five-goal blitz.
I think it’s early to say it’s over.
and 2-1
Jinxed by Mahaloth!
2-1. Halftime got easier for Mexico.
Given both those goals were against the run of play and history I still have Mexico as slight favorites.
What a header! Pickford is busy!
Getting plenty of chances…
What a dramatic first half!
Bellingham +3 goals on the day so far - two scored, one saved.
Half ends with Gordon taking a dive.
Halftime. What a game!
England going to need some of that Maradona cocaine to keep this up for the second half.
England were gassed by the end of the half. They’ll be on the oxygen canisters in the dressing room now.
Now I’m confused: what should England really take, Viagra, caffeine or cocaine? Why not just, well, tea?
If they want a good night, all 3.
Before or after the game?
England were hanging on by their teeth. Bellingham is on a mission tonight.
Gameplan has to be to keep the lead intact and bring on Rashford, Rogers and maybe Watkins up front to bring new energy and more pace as Mexico get desperate and leave spaces behind
Was Mexico’s team camp during the tournament at altitude? I could imagine them putting it in Mexico City itself, but between the air quality and the number of distractions, I could see wanting to have it somewhere else.
I didn’t see the American red card play.
But if it was reviewed during the game, it stood for the game.
These things and referee calls are routinely reviewed at a higher level. If it was genuinely wrong it should be reversed.
But this does not mean there should be the impression Trump caused the reversal. The proper response was to wait a bit, at least for appearances sake, remove tongue from gluteal posterior fold, announce it is being reviewed and a decision is forthcoming but will take time, and only then announce the reverse decision. And if the decision was correct, of course a “FIFA cares” facilitating payment is traditional.
