the first half was great, actually. the game deteriorated a bit in the 2nd half, because it's impossible to keep up the same fast pace all 90 minutes. mexico had no resolution on the offensive, but the uruguayan defense was rock-solid and didn't allow anything. dos santos remains a very able and smart player who is unable to resolve an offensive play. i don't know if it's nerves or what-- he's barely 21.

mexico should be playing argentina, i think that will be their end--they are a nice team, but they lack scoring power.
