Both the US and Mexico had groups made for them to advance and they are about to both get eliminated at the first hurdle.


Kakashicopyninja9

Uruguay is one of the best teams in the tournament. and Panama are not slouches. But mexicos group should have been light work if they were any good. But ask any Mexican they are not surprised by this at all


Quanqiuhua

Ecuador and Venezuela are better than Panama.


pollo02

Panama is also better than this México


_gloriousdead222

No they’re not, Mexico always beats Panama look at the most recent games they have played


lads_lads_ladz

Really surprised and disappointed by Mexico this tournament - hopefully they can get themselves into a better place for the World Cup in 2 years... Always add so much to the tournament!!


Sportsisthebest

Even if Mexico won this game, they would have to face Argentina in the quarterfinals and we almost know how that would have gone. So it was a lose-lose situation for them either way.


ah-zeite

Yeah if Ecuador gets 3-0’d by Argentina they’re gonna wish they would have just conceded a goal to Mexico lmao


CantFindaPS5

Nah. They get $2 million for each round they advance.


Sportsisthebest

Actually if you look at the last 3 games between these teams, Ecuador has played well against them. Argentina only winning 1-0 in the last 2 games and Ecuador drew 1-1 in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. So Argentina will have to fight hard for this one.


ah-zeite

Nice. Should be a great match


artistaajo

Went to State Farm Stadium. The game was total ass and when the game was over it made me wonder how our Latino community can act so poorly


ReadySetGonads

Bro had an existential crisis 😆


BenjRSmith

Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Panama. In theory, there could be an All Gran Colombia final four.


Rvntlt1906

Lol, tbh this is the best outcome for Mexico NT, Mexico in the next stage would've mean being total obliterated by Argentina, so they're better getting knocked out in group stage than getting massacred in QF. Best news is my players are finally back.


Mr_105

Getting back shots from Argentina could’ve pushed them to sack Jimmy tho


RealPropRandy

This was truly one of the matches that have ever occurred.


BenjRSmith

"Of all the Copa America games to happen.... this was truly the most recent"


Johnnybats330

jugamos como siempre, no ganamos como siempre


Normal-Level-7186

Just started watching Mexico closely today, and just realized they didn’t call up Lozano. That’s a weird one he’s not even that old.


NotanAlt23

He talked shit about the current mexican manager in an interview so he's temporarily grounder for that.


cuddersrage

beats me, it’s not like he’s some world beater but he’s 100% better than half of these fucks


NotanAlt23

He talked shit about the current mexican manager in an interview so he's temporarily grounder for that.


conenubi701

Talent wise? no. But heart beats pure talent in these games. So many of these players looked like they just didn't want to even be there, I've never seen anything like it and I've been watching for about 30 years


cuddersrage

even talent wise, these players are so garbageeeeee


noctisroadk

So only Panama and Canada will go trough from Concacaf, who would have say that 3 weeks ago lol


cuddersrage

ngl usa is probably getting through


PatternStraight2487

let's be real USA has 0 chances to defeat Uruguay, maybe draw, and beg for a miracle and Bolivia can score against Panama, but that's unlikely.


Roflitos

Uruguay is likely going with their second team today so there's a glimmer of hope for them


PatternStraight2487

Uruguay and Colombia don't want to face each other at this stage, so I don't think that Uruguay is gonna play to pass, they know that the need to be first in their group to have an easier rival.


noctisroadk

While Uruguay probably put a lot of subs idk if USA can beat them even with that , prob a draw If they dont put subs, usa is fucked


vitalmtg

You think usa would beat uruguay?


cuddersrage

no but panama is going to fumble


althor2424

They don’t have to necessarily beat Uruguay. They just have to do better than Panama does in their game. If both teams tie then US goes through on GD. I’d still be betting Panama goes through with a win over Bolivia and the US gets at best a draw against Uruguay


get_z_flammenwerfer

doubt that, biesla doesn't put foot on brake


Glad_Block_7220

If football was fair they both should be eliminated. I was subjected to 2 hours of Southgate terrorism and then 2 hours of the worse football I have ever seen, I would rather see a match of cripples than this two teams. I hope you are proud of ruining my night you cunts. FUCK YOU!


smokedserranojelly

i didnt watch this game but somehow i understand your pain


Havok8907

You could have easily turned off TV and not watched the game lol


Ok_Championship4866

It was a good game, if you don't like low scoring games you don't like soccer because that's pretty damn common, even 0-0. I understand 1-1 is statistically the most common score line.


Every_Pass_226

How dare Ecuador play for a draw when they needed only a draw to progress.


ah-zeite

Honestly I feel they got lucky to get a draw, it wasn’t really skillfully kept at a draw. Mexico kept getting the ball really close but couldn’t finish, not really due to Ecuador’s defense I think.


EndPlus9839

Buddy you can play for a draw by scoring a goal like what pep usually does.


NotanAlt23

mfer just compared ecuador to a billionaire club lmao


Every_Pass_226

Here's the neat part. Ecuador doesn't have 115 charge infested squad with billion dollars worth of players to back it up.


EndPlus9839

Ecuador players are way better than Mexicos. What kind of stupid point is this. “115” well actually 🤓


cuddersrage

realistically, ecuador should’ve came out with the intent to win. Mexico has been weak all tournament long and ecuador had a shot to win the group (obviously venezuela won). Big difference between canada and argentina


Havok8907

How dare they try to burn time just like any other team would have done if they were in the same position.

royalewithcheese4272

Imagine taking off a young, energetic Sarmiento for an old tired man in Angel Mena, instead bringing on a fast and dynamic Yeboah. Imagine keeping Enner on who is clearly done, and not using your final sub. Imagine waiting till the 75 minute to take out Kevin Rodriguez. I don’t have faith in this head coach with arguably our most talented group ever. I’m happy we made it through but I am concerned over our style of play.


Substantial-You3

I’m with you man. Rodriguez is not meant for this high level sport. Enner still has a bit left, Dominguez should be replaced by galindez. Yeboah should have come on. Páez should have not been taken out. There’s a lot of flaws with Felix Sanchez, but I hope we can beat Argentina.


Quanqiuhua

The moment Sarmiento left Mexico started to dominate. And you are right Valencia is finished at this level.


drhouse4ever

Coronados de gloria vivamos


carbuyinglol

Goddamn the US match thread is gonna be rats in a barrel with all the mexico supporters wanting the US to lose


195cm

I'm Mexican and to be fair I would love USA to qualify, and them with Canada to have deep runs into the competition so maybe our brain dead football federation can finally open their eyes and do something about the rotten state of Mexican football. Cheers.


cuddersrage

tbf that was this thread too


ah-zeite

every country in north, central, and south america wants the US to lose (except the US obv and maybe canada)


alittledanger

I can promise you as an American who works with a lot of Canadians…….they don’t want us to win either lol


ladyred1234

Ecuador parking the bus and rolling on the ground for every minor inconvenience was the lamest shit ever. That being said, Mexico's performance has seen much better days so I'm hoping this is a wake up call.


PuzzledBig5979

Mexico fucking sucks bruv learn to deal with it and improve


ladyred1234

If you read my comment, I'm agreeing bruv


ieatbabies795

I can see why Chucky was ball hogging during the World Cup, he really didn’t trust his own teammates with the ball especially Antuna


renegadecoaster

Clearly the key to success in CONCACAF is to be a country named in the format \*a\*a\*a

The AAA nations dominate the CCC federation C••C•C••


BenjRSmith

Absolute mad lad


Top-Scarcity5937

Nice !


Food_Worried

Lol as Argentinian in the end I was rooting for Mexico because all ecuadorian players was rolling on the floor.


Havok8907

Argentina has done the same shit when they play Ecuador in Quito. All teams do this. It sucks but it’s part of the game.


Food_Worried

Yes, you're right but it's the first time I see a player get out in a stretcher XD.


Havok8907

Yeah that was a first lol


BenjRSmith

not to mention by halftime it was obvious Argentina is going shred either of these teams.


PuzzledBig5979

Ecuador is winning this and a full man squad victory against Venezuela for a spot in the championship


SadPollution8260

Argentina has owned us in the 1993 copa final and it was fair game. :\]


Radthereptile

Is there anything more annoying than a team winning and watching their keeper catch the ball then fall down and. Or get up for a full minute?


Diegolikesandiego

It’s annoying, but only shitty if you’re losing.


RockShrimp

Sorry I was out am I too late to make a no era penal joke before we get destroyed tomorrow?


xI-Red-Ix

Fuck. I was sweating with my ecuador jersey now imagine tomorrow with my usa one.


VacinateYourKiddies

US wins 2-1 tmr after Mckennie scores winner in extra time (im delusional)


Immediate-Week6993

Lifelong Mexico fan but I want to see US advance far in a major tournament just to see how the country reacts to it. Be nice to see how the teams first REAL major hype train feels in the states.


alittledanger

I feel like it would have to be in a World Cup. I mean we’ve advanced far in Copa Americas before and got to the final of the Confederations Cup, ending Spain’s ridiculously long unbeaten streak along the way. But those didn’t really get a ton of hype.


Quanqiuhua

Only once to the semifinals but that was a very long time ago.


alittledanger

Twice. We went to the semis it in 2016 too.


SadPollution8260

is Mckennie playing with the red?


McBride055

Weah is the one red carded. McKennie has a yellow from the Bolivia match but is available.


BenjRSmith

You idiot……. Pulisic gonna get a hat trick and party with Taylor Swift


Markycalderon

equador had no balls to go for goals, satisfied with the tie. Cant wait to see yall crying vs argentina


ruthekangaroo

Salt. Enjoying this after years of listening to Mexicans calculating where in the top 4 they would finish in our qualifiers.


vallenato_king

Just ignorance… i mean the top 4 in Conmebol would compete in a world cup level. Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Colombia


Havok8907

They played smart. All they needed was a tie and their strategy worked.


PuzzledBig5979

Blud’s team couldn’t score a goal against a South American team 😆


Markycalderon

my teams ass


public_hairs

I’m sure they’re devastated at making it through the group


MyKneeHurts11

Ecuador is overhyped as fuck, they were definitely the inferior team. However, also fuck FMF


royalewithcheese4272

Idk who is hyping us up, we have literally zero teeth up front. We can only defend. Our head coach is mismanaging this team so much. I miss Alfaro


PuzzledBig5979

Ecuadors an easy bet against old man Messi


No_Size_1765

Yeah how old is Argentina right now?


JarodMMS

In all honesty, both teams deserved to be eliminated. Ugly, ugly football.


Ok_Championship4866

Mexico advances to the Uruguay-US match thread, congratulations!


handi503

Won't even be safe from them on the r/MLS thread.


BenjRSmith

Was really hoping there would be a thread for the Georgia game on r/CFB


Ok_Championship4866

Too many us fans shit talking them tonight lol, it's gonna be fucked tomorrow night!


handi503

Lol, there's never an end to our shit talking to each other (nor would I want it any other way).


EndPlus9839

Congrats Panama and Canada ur the only concacaf countries going through.


jonn_jonzz

I have nothing to add but I think Argentina's jersey would make some bitchin racing colors.


FastAd543

Actually...\ https://www.racingclub.com.ar/ La academia.


jonn_jonzz

I meant in terms of cars, but you are technically correct. Which we all know is the best kind of correct.


pablxo

pinche seleccion bola de pendejos, this national team has never looked more worse, and uninspired, and being eliminated like this is full proof of that. Lozano has been straight garbage for this team, but at this point I don't even know if any of this is salvageable for the next guy in


Mr_105

There’s definitely more problems plaguing the team than just the coach, the lack of talent coming from Liga MX means there’s no one who can adequately replace old phased out players


SadPollution8260

i think we played better with Huerta, than with antuna. But Quinones doesnt know how to play winger on the left


_hellboy_xo

Now it’s our turn to cope Tomorrow The US


BenjRSmith

We’re gonna get grouped, but Mexico being unable to say anything about it will make it bearable


SadPollution8260

not u guys invading Mexico threads to talk shit though


BenjRSmith

Well what else are we supposed to do with those two years of high school Spanish?


SadPollution8260

lol, the funny thing is that the LigaMX reddit is totally in english


BenjRSmith

seriously? lol


Erick837

at least you guys made it we’re dogshit 😭


Linkaara

Mexican keeper suddenly decided to become the best defense for Ecuador 


XAMdG

Si el arquero metía el gol de chilena creo que hasta los ecuatorianos hubieran aplaudido


Rgmisll

No surprise.. Ecuador is a better team than Mexico. Also, not sure why Campana didn’t get called up? He’d make Ecuador so much better


albocaj

It CAN be better but wasn't by far. Campana won't be accepted by the team as a fellow teammate. Also, if you don't have independiente del valle/U Catolica background, then you must be absolutely unique/irreplaceable to make it. Players like Mena & Micolta don't fit that criteria though, which surprises me.


SadPollution8260

Ecuador looked bad and kept diving. Mexico was attacking, but couldn't finish.


royalewithcheese4272

Been saying this. Campana is probably thr best option after Enner, has all the qualities to thrive with the rest of the players we have.


Havok8907

He’s slow. His work rate is poor. FSB likes for his attacking players to press and force the other team into making mistakes. Campana is tall and has a decent physique but isn’t good at holding the ball up and facilitating other players.


MyKneeHurts11

Absolutely not lmao. Ecuador didn’t do shit besides waste time


XAMdG

Classism No, seriously.

GeneralBooty_10

Celebrating this as a win for the US because we definitely aren’t advancing out of our group either lmao.


Heck-The-Police

Two of the three hosts of the next World Cup going to get grouped.


Accomplished-Exit136

And its their own fault for being stupid game 2. Penalty in the box, red card. This is a game of chess more than athleticism. POISE COUNTS


GeneralBooty_10

Yeah but at least we are better than Qatar.


VacinateYourKiddies

Canada is our last concacaf hope 🥺🙏🙏🙏


Accomplished-Exit136

Honestly good for canada. They are very well run


KQ17

The Canadian federation is a joke.


Accomplished-Exit136

Used to be. Now they have their shit together. Its a country of less population than the state of california and it snows 8 months a year. They'll never be elite but they are atleast competent


KQ17

But the federation is broke. The current coach is paid by the three MLS teams owners because the CSA couldn't. They also had trouble paying for friendlies in the past years. Basically they entered a deal with a third party for all media rights of the National teams and that third party is taking most revenue.


Accomplished-Exit136

Well somebody knows what they're doing recruiting all the dual national players and convincing 3 MLS teams to pay marsches salary


OtherwiseDecision412

Gonna be cheering for Canada 🇨🇦


bruhmomentum127

same here brother 🇨🇦


PranjalDwivedi

Forgetting Panama


crowd79

We live in an era where Canada is the best Concacaf team lol We will join Mexico tomorrow on the couch.


trainrocks19

They’re not though


crowd79

U.S. needs to beat Uruguay lol. Panama just needs to beat Bolivia who is absolutely terrible.


trainrocks19

That doesn’t make them the best team in the region. No matter who goes through.


No_Size_1765

Honestly if we can't beat Uruguay, losing 5 days later isnt going to be too much different.


PranjalDwivedi

Nah it's Panama actually


SadPollution8260

If panama and canada make it through while USA and Mexico get knocked out, consider it karma for all the times we have whooped them over the years.


carloselcoco

You may be right. If Bolivia wins against Panama and the US loses against Uruguay, the scores would need to be something crazy for Bolivia to go over Panama and the US with that goal deficit. If the US ties, it depends on whether Panama wins.


renegadecoaster

Copa is nothing if not entertaining


benjamoo

Feel bad for Mexico. They should've had 2 pens. Not the one that was overturned, but the handball in the box and the one that VAR somehow upheld as a no-call.


spinfreak

I wouldn't sweat it. I have been watching this team for a long time and this iteration of El Tri is just poor. Mexico was not deserving of a win and they would have fallen hard in the next round anyway. I hope they can walk away from this as a hard lesson that La Seleccion has fallen to a terrible low. Hopefully they can improve ahead of the WC in two years.


SadPollution8260

he stepped on him with his heel to trip him, but the video wasn't clear enough to 100% prove it


royalewithcheese4272

Clear no penalty in the second one. Torres clearly pokes the ball out.


benjamoo

That's what I said. Correct call on that one, but he missed 2 others that should've been given.


Bruh360k

We were shit but cmon a shitty ass handball was given during germany vs denmark so we should gotten something at least


DatDominican

No era penal


ragnarok_x89

Hey Mexico, not everything is bad. You beat Jamaica at least. You're still highly competitive in CONCACAF matches. lol


SadPollution8260

we have made it to two copa america finals in the past, the dark knight will rise again one day

Why would we cry? We’d be free, free at last, of Berhalter. Tomorrow is win-win


MusicianKooky6830

Idk, I’m pretty sure Berhalter’s brother might keep him their


E51838

It's shocking to me how many US fans think Berhalter is going to be fired. There's zero chance that happens. He is our coach through 2026 no matter what.


EndPlus9839

Ur saying this like ur confident ur just not gonna get another mid manager. International football has garbage managers


BenjRSmith

Cause we already know that. The USSF will just scoop up another average MLS coach, but it’s worth a roll of the dice, cause we know *this* isn’t working.

It doesn’t matter who the manager is, if Mexico can’t develop their players the results will be the same

true we need to add promotion and relegation back to the league and limit foreign players in the league


Heyzuz58

I didn’t even know that word was homophobic until fifa told me it was


altervane

Doesn't it mean bitch, still kinda fk'd up to collectively shout a curse word to a player, real nice


vitalmtg

That's crazy how this is so ingrained to some but unheard of to others. All through preparatory school and Sunday league we would shout this to the opposition keeper. It's like second nature


altervane

So they teach how to be disrespectful from childhood got it.


vitalmtg

Yea we talk a lot of shit. Evrrytime family comes together it's Like a roast fest. You grow thick skin fast lol


altervane

Then why you guys cry so much


vitalmtg

If you mean the people on here it's mostly Americans cosplaying as Mexicans. If you mean they players they are bitches


altervane

Yeah your probably right tbh, true Mexicans don't speak english, but I was more talking about the fans, throwing shit, but I guess we all have a different idea what playful roasts are or you could argue most Mexican's can't go to American anyways and these are Americans cosplaying as Mexican fans.


vitalmtg

Yea the issue is mexico always play in the US where the Mexican American fans are happy to fill the stadium to watch this washed team. As long as fmf keeps making money this team will stay trash

Soak your churros in tears El Tri

It’s a shame we don’t get to get spanked by Argentina
