Quoted from Swainer80:Mexico Baby! Representing North America!
The announcer at the end of the game said it was "a historic win for the Central American side".
There's only 3 countries in North America, you wouldn't think it would be that hard to keep straight.
Quoted from ImNotNorm:Is Mexico even considered part of central America? I thought not.
No, it's not.
Hence my comment about 3 countries in North America, Mexico is one of them.
The Croatian keeper is weak.
Those two goals from outside the area wouldn't beat most keepers at this level.
Quoted from Frippertron:Dude he has been one of the best keepers in the tournament. At this level saves look much easier on TV. That ball is moving so fast, it's where you are standing not where you can jump to. Croatia's keeper has won a couple penalty shootouts too. Subasic is a quality keeper. Keepers are needed when the defense FAILS!
Ya, 'Dude', I get that. A shot from outside the box, two feet inside the post is stopped by most keepers at this level. He may have been one of the better keepers in the tournament but those two goals should have been stopped. He was so slow to move on that fourth goal.
When a shot comes from outside the box the defense hasn't failed. You defend to prevent chances from inside the area. The defense can't prevent shots from everywhere and that shot was from 20+ yards out.
Quoted from Frippertron:A lot of things went wrong for Croatia, how about we agree on that? I'm proud of the boys and still remains my favorite country to visit even though I'm not Croatian. All you guys that cheered on Croatia, do yourself a favor and visit. They filmed Kings Landing and Mereen from Game of Thrones there. Visit all the sites, go sailing in Dalmatia, just go. Croatia is an undiscovered treasure, from Zagreb, Split, Sibenik, Ston, Hvarr, and Dubrovnik it's absolutely Imamaculate, like a legless Baywatch!
Yes, totally agree there. Croatia played well all tournament and deserved to be in the final.
Today just wasn't their day but making the final is a heck of an accomplishment for any nation, never mind one with a population of 4 million.
