How did Green look? I only saw one opinion, but it wasn't very good. The game was way too late for how early I have to wake up in the morning.

After the old man's headed goal, Mexico came alive. Their second was due to terrible defending. The first shot that struck the post should never have got through. About 3 players were in a position to block it but none committed.

The third goal should have been allowed, it was not offside, but it ALSO should not have mattered. By then Mexico had salvaged the game - or should I say: The Los Americanos had thrown the game away.

the americans never threw the game away, if anything Mexico improved with the substitution of el Negro Medina for zavala and he blanked bradley in 2nd half who no longer was moving the u.s. attack.

overall a good game considering just another dumb friendly for Mexican federation to make more money.

2-0 lead at home and you end up in a draw. Sorry, but you just threw that game away. 2-0 is risky but it is still 2-0 - they should have been going for the knock out punch in the 2nd half, not sitting back and day dreaming.

Eddie Johnson was offside by the slightest of margins btw. His upper torso was leaning. I've seen about 5 different takes.

DaMarcus Beasely has evolved into a defender?

He plays as a left back with the national team.

Altidore will make the squad, he's had a lousy season though.

Donovan didn't make it. Crazy.

I understand that JK knows things that I don't, but we're taking a Regionalliga player to the World Cup, and that's weird.

Julian Green shows promise. Donovan himself said that his fitness wasn't going to keep up with him playing out wide and that JK was only going to play him as a forward. And with Dempsey as a forward along with Johansson, Wondolowski and Altidore, it would've been hard to include him.
