Mexico vs Colombia. Should be a fun match. Hoping the inevitable 2nd half subs don’t rob too much intensity

New post at #DeLejitos, mi casita. "Twenty years later, we're here again," open.substack.com/pub/delejito... #ElTrieng

Me watching the Cubs take a lead in a playoff game.

There is a large protest scheduled for 10/18 & have been scattered protests away from downtown but major events continue to take place in Chicago. Cubs @ Wrigley tonight; Chicago Marathon w/50k runners from around the world happening as scheduled 1 day before this match would have been played.

Also think this is important w/reporting out there that "immigration crackdown & protests" caused event to move - These were for-sale seats as of 1PM CT today and I'm being told commercial concerns drove the move.

Mailbox: Event promoters say that the friendly between Argentina and Puerto Rico for Oct 13 has been moved to Ft. Lauderdale for 10/14 No notice on socials or website from promoters or AFA. Tickets remain on sale at pretty astronomical prices on Ticketmaster's website

Not surprised he won. He has a real shot at making the World Cup roster next summer. @nayibmoran.bsky.social thinks he should go over other less exciting options in the player pool.

Next up for Mexico is the winner of ARG/NIG on Saturday, 10/11.

Mexico walking away with this one, 3-0. Biggest thing to close out this game is to not pick up any YCs. A couple players on the field are at risk of missing next game due to YC accumulation

Golazo by Íker Fimbres to put Mexico up 2-0. Brutal for Chile as they have clearly been the better team in the 2nd half but remain scoreless

Chile trying to get physical with Mexico and especially Mora this half. Safe to say, they’ve had all the momentum through the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half

Sloppy start to the second half for Mexico.

16 year old Gilberto Mora in 3.5 games at the U20 WC. 3 goals 2 assist

Seems like a waste of a review for Mexico.

The world cup ticket price increases from 2022 are INSANE. Category 4 tickets for opening match, group stage, round of 16, and final are 10x from 2022.

3 touches for Mihailovic in the game’s first 22 minutes. Just what the Fire want. #cf97

🔥STARTING XI🔥 A fairly rotated XI for Berhalter’s side tonight. Oregel and Pineda making their first starts in over a month, Gutierrez enters the attack, and Maren stays on after a MOTM performance midweek. Bamba, D’avilla, Dean all start on the bench. #cf97 #vamosfire

FIFA will charge both sellers and buyers a 15 per cent fee on its official 2026 World Cup ticket resale platform, which launched on Thursday and almost immediately had some tickets listed for tens of thousands of dollars. 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/668...

I wrote this after last month's friendlies that Vasco should lean into a back 5 so his fullbacks could attack/ create width. After Huesca's ACL injury, I think that no longer is an option. Not sure who else in player pool can play as a dynamic RWB. www.thecolorfulkit.com/2025/09/anal...

and he probably should have had an assist but his teammate cant score 1v1 after Edson sprung him into space.

Edson Alvarez getting some Europa League minutes today off the bench for Fenerbahce. I think he's trending towards getting called up for October friendlies and maybe seeing action in 1 game before heading back to Turkey early.

2026 World Cup ticket prices are (much) higher than: 🏆 all previous World Cups 🥇 all Olympics 🔮 projections in the 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇲🇽 bid ⚽️ Euros, Champions League & more Only real comparison: the NFL and Super Bowls. A piece placing WC prices in context:

Pricing for WC games through round of 16 for categories 1-3. Your wallet is going to sting.

2 goals for the extraordinary Gilberto Mora in the U20 World Cup yesterday. Back in February, I profiled the 16-year-old, analysing his underlying numbers, remarkable ball retention, shot locations and performances in the Tijuana academy 👇 cambiodejuegoenglish.beehiiv.com/p/the-best-p...

With Morocco clinching the group, Mexico can advance with - a win - a draw if Spain/Brazil also draw

Kouame somehow got 1 goal, 1 assist in his 12 touches during his start tonight. #cf97 #efficient

Shout out to the homegrown triple subs for changing the game. What a wild game. Congrats to Justin Reynolds on his debut MLS goal. #cf97

AND IT'S SWEEEEEEEET SWEET VICTORY 🔥 #cf97

Golazo. #cf97

Flop and a half

me and the boys making billions as anime smugglers

Pinche Leyenda

Trump and his weirdos are gonna be so mad lmao

Players that stood out to me: - Obed Vargas: 33/34 passes and very calm on the ball. Surprised he got subbed out in 74th minute - Gilberto Mora: had 5 key passes and provided assist off the corner

Mexico open their U20 WC campaign with a 2-2 draw versus Brazil. Next up is Spain on Wednesday. This is the toughest group of the tournament and just advancing would be a success.

What a run from Franco and what a finish from Cuypers. 2-0. Absolute class.

This average position map kinda tells the story of the match. #cf97 have been on the attack from kickoff.

Something tells me #cf97 is going to exercise the buy option on Franco’s loan from Porto.

Carlos Sainz pole? #F1

Anyone else think Vasco needs to make a formation change to get Mexico's attack going?

Analyzing Mexico’s Tactical Options As 2026 World Cup Nears Mexico played to draws against Japan and South Korea in the September window, what did we learn about Vasco's side as we creep closer to the World Cup.

Me by the fourth quarter

Me after that season opening drive by the Bears offense.

We have the terribly scheduled 2024 Leagues Cup to thank for Gilberto Mora? Kinda. @nayibmoran.bsky.social explains.

As the first match kicks off, a reminder that you can learn a bit about the biggest stories & what’s up with almost every team remaining. 👇🏽
