How the frick is that not being looked at by the ref? Time to dig in

[MegaErtz]

Never a penalty despite the commentator being 100% certain. I honestly think we'd be better off playing with ten men over starting Bombito. He is terrible.

Why am I not surprised.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Our right side is not having a good start. Johnston is rushing everything and Ahmed doesn’t look settled either. Ahmed needs Johnston to calm things down and help him out a little

[Beninho]

No one feed the troll. Clear penalty except in corrupt concacaf

[MegaErtz]

Davies lucky not to be sent off there. Very dirty.

[GirlySports]

[The Big Chill]

3/4 of defenders on yellows not. We need to settle down, not making good decisions so far.

[browna]

Mexicans up to their old tricks to slow the game.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Johnston is having a brutal game

[browna]

Johnston still think he's playing against scrubs and plumbers from Rangers in the SPL and isn't as quick as he should be. Just tried to hammer the free kick at the guy two yards away.

Classic CONCACAF game so far. Cheap early goal, missed pen, Canada just off it.

Johnston having a howler. Problem is who do you replace him with with Laryea and Adekugbe out. Sigur?

[MegaErtz]

I genuinely love watching Davies play. Every time he's on the ball, I get the feeling that he could do anything with it.

The rest of the team are junk. I've never understood the hype around Johnathan David. The guy is being linked with West Ham but from what I see from him every time he plays for Canada, he couldn't score in a brothel.

Sigur or Tajon. And do it before halftime or he’s gonna be off

[MegaErtz]

How did Johnston escape a booking there? Clear as day.

[cheevers]

Get Johnston off!

[M*A*S*H 4077]

That’s really good defence to hold their line

[The Big Chill]

The worst part of Mexico scoring early is that there will be about 10 minutes of actual football played out of the 90.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Classic Concacaf reffing but that can’t be an excuse anymore. They know what they’re up against and they’re good enough. And it’s going both ways. Johnston could’ve had three yellow cards out there

I’d like to see Koné and Eustaquio get on the ball more. The game is being played mostly on the wings right now. Davies looks lively and Ahmed grew into the game as the half wore on.

A warm body for Johnston at the half and Shaff for Oso on 60 to run at tiring defenders

[shermanator]

I'd like to see Sigur, Shaffelburg and David in for Johnston, Osorio and Larin. Sigur at halftime to avoid a Johnston second yellow and Shaff and David in around the 60th.
