Lol QuiΓ±ones could not be any less interested in passing there, and what a strike to back it up


by wheatrich m

no idea how that's not offsides, the rule is confusing sometimes

Was in his own half. Cannot be offside by rule if you're in your own half.

If you are able to watch this on Telemundo, do it. Even if you don't speak Spanish. You speak enough.

thought that was off, but i guess not. nice hit, am i nuts for thinking the keeper should have done better at the near post? yeah probably

can't be off in your own half

no keeper saves that

LOL his team mates were SO ANNOYED at him as he shot.... then fine with it.

It's a good thing they put those pads near the camera or Raul would be minus a few ribs for the next few months.

pretty much his fault though. took a bump and turned it into a major tumble. thought the ref might show red there, glad he didn't. surprised no yellow though

Look... I get that Mexico is athletically deficient and not really all that special as far as Mexican teams are concerned, but if I'm an England fan I'm not looking forward to RO16 in this environment.

+1, i would bet mexico

It's as true of a road game as you can get in a world cup. It's not just in mexico, it's azteca.

yeah i know, was saying i thought it was off live


Que GOLAZO


TIL that the own half exception to the offside rule operates similarly to the QB passing the line of scrimmage before throwing the ball. If any playable part of the body is in one's own half, it's excepted.


gg


this ECU D is suspect man


This is legitimately the loudest I think I've ever heard any stadium.


Must be nuts at the Azteca right now


Mexico at Azteca get +10 to all stats. Pretty scary.


Legit surprised there wasn't anything thrown at the Ecu corner taker. One benefit to the prices of these matches I guess.


Ecuador is ****ing shell shocked. They have zero composure. It looks like they were completely unprepared for this.


FFS a CB who just won the ****ing Champions League served up that second goal to a bottom-tier EPL striker on an absolute platter. This is one place that actually matters for home advantage.

NM - it was Ordonez who hit the **** ball. But only because Pacho had just gotten worked after making a bad decision.

They've looked good since going 2-0 down.

One back before half time and it will be full Sash


wow I think he was onside too.


If you didn't like Paraguay's dark arts, this second half is not going to be enjoyable.

no truer words


ecuador ain't bright, all the free kicks out of bounds then the last corner of the half where if you look at the clock, you absolutely cannot do what they did with just kicking the ball backwards


apparently Ecuador watched Korea and went let's do that. No urgency, no offense. blah
