Mexico has great talent with solid players but they seem to lack that finishing touch to score, too many close calls with missed clear opportunities. Mexico has so much support for their team its no surprises the spanish channel revolves around "El Tri" which makes up the largest latino population in 'Merica, this is so evident during matches in the U.S against Mexico. Also has anyone noticed all the missed calls "for" Mexico, Dos Santos gets 2 goals nulled against Ghana. The clear handballs against Croatia, one inside the penalty box. Also i remember against Brazil there was a offside player that "headed" the ball and the ref waited for the play to finish only to call offside after a missed opportunity which looked really weird.Comment

Mexican players have always been talented. It's always been the mental aspect of the game where they've been lacking.Mexico has great talent with solid players but they seem to lack that finishing touch to score, too many close calls with missed clear opportunities.

Univision revolving their World Cup attention around Mexico shouldn't come as a shock to anyone. It's owned by Mexicans and watched by mostly Mexicans of course their going to cater to their audience.
Officiating has been awful in Mexico's World Cup games. Hopefully we catch some breaks this Sunday.Comment

I understand that but I guess it just annoys me. It feels like they are TOO bias at times. And I feel like they just bandwagon. Btw its not just me. A lot of peoplw arouns town are complaining about it too and I heard they're also complaining about it on Facebook. To the point where people just want Mexico to lose.Mexican players have always been talented. It's always been the mental aspect of the game where they've been lacking.

With that said, I love the commentary. Much better than the English channel (ESPN).Last edited by .:: JSFD26 ::.; 06-27-2014, 07:36 PM.Comment

Bc that channel is mostly for mexicans. Who do you want them to ride cuba?If you're talking about the commentators yes. They're fans of the sport. You rarely see any bias if any from them. But as I said above, I'm talking about the shows covering the world cup before and between games. Very bias. They rarely mention any European team too.
lmao

I would be annoyed too if I weren't Mexican. The national team is the cash cow(A side) when it comes to futbol it's what sells so that's what they focus on. The amount of Mexicans that watch Univision is just top high for them not to make them their main target group, and it's been like that forever until Mexico loses they'll just adopt Brazil or Argentina.I understand that but I guess it just annoys me.
