It was a draw in their last match sans Borgetti against Angola, a first-timer in the World Cup. While it was not good for Mexico, it did give Angola a glimmer of hope. So if anything else, there was some humanitarian victory in match #23.
Match #39 next week, this time against Portugal (#7 in the ranking), is one of the most anticipated in this year's tournament. I wanna watch it with a beer in tow. Govsters, let's have a futbol party! Have to figure out the airing sked, though. Harhar.
Anyways, I came across some trivia. Only seven countries have won the World cup Championship since it began in 1930. Mexico is not one of them, of course, but they came in strong this year. It's a long shot, but, I wanna root for a team other than Brazil for once. Brazil, of course, which has won 5 titles, is the world's darling when it comes to futbol. And don't get me wrong, I am one of their billions of fans, and it helps that my most favorite flip-flops is made from Brazil.
The other countries include: Germany and Italy, with 3 titles each, followed by Uruguay and Argentine (who can ever forget Diego Maradona??) with 2 each and England (way before David Beckham was even born, hehe) and France with 1.
I'm really looking forward to watch the finals in July. Everyone all over the world will literally be on their feet. I watched the 2002 FIFA World Cup Finals, with Ronaldo as the hero, with Petite and Mark in what used to be Streetlife in Glorietta. That was fun. Germany certainly didn't back down then. And they could still be in this year's finals. Will it be Germany vs Brazil again this year? Or will there be an 8th country to make it in the list of World Cup champions? Hmmm...
