Feels like England is playing a very deliberate style. Guessing they want to be smart about taking chances early and then try to turn it on late?

Probably smart. Altitude, of course. But you also know Mexico is going to come out with a ton of energy so you don’t want to give up an early goal to really let the crowd get involved.

Christ, what a half!

At a bar near Barclays center. Half Mexico fans and half England fans. Dude running around in a lucha libre mask. Guys to my right cheering for England and singing derogatory songs about Mexico/mexicans. Non-zero chance a fight will break out before the game ends.

Don't like that call either. I get why it's a red. But there's also not strong contact against the leg and the leg bounced off the ball first.

Surely England will handle 11 on 10 at this elevation 

I'll take the under 0.5 shots on goal for England the rest of the game.

EDIT: Wasn't counting on a PK. Come on, Harry!

It's pretty wild that Kane could end up breaking the old record for most career World Cup goals and not come anywhere near the top-2 whenever Messi and Mbappe are done.

That's soft too. I mean I get it. But Kane basically contacts he ball and the player at the same time and has no idea the player is there either.

Agreed. Didn’t like that penalty.
