Mexico leads 1-0, at the half!!! This would be a huge upset, but it wont guarantee that Mexico advances, nor that Germany goes home.
Germany is generally considered the favorite to win the tournament.
Any else experiencing NO AUDIO in their World Cup feed on Fox Sports 1 via Direct TV Now? It's been off for hours now. All other channels working on
my Fire Box streaming DTV and FS1.

Yes surprisingly Mexico is leading 1-0 at halftime!
Mexico is outplaying Germany, at least they did the first half.
If Mexico, wins this will be a big upset, and expect the Mexicans to go nuts in Mexico, and in Latino neighborhoods in the southwest US.
However, Germany, seems to be doing better in the 2nd half.
I love to listen to Andrés Cantor, the sportscaster that screams, “GGGGOOOOAAAALLLL” when someone scores!

Final, Mexico beats Germany, 1-0.
While I am in awe of how these players control the ball and pass, I dont know if this sport will ever catch on in the US with how little scoring ever
happens.
The first time I got interested in the World Cup was the first one after we moved to Mexico, 2010. Final game between Spain and Netherlands went into
overtime scoreless. Spain eventually got a goal in OT to prevent the dreaded shoot-out or penalty kick.

Soccer is the sport of the masses! Peru controlled the 1st half and then gagged every time they should have scored. It's the human condition....
Strike while you can and hope for the best!
Congats to El Tri!

I think six more. Three in group, the round of 16, 8, 4, 2. They may be able to lose one in group play, as the top two in each 8 groups goes to the
round of 16.

To REALLY appreciate how huge a win this is for Mexico ...
To REALLY appreciate how HUGE a win this is for Mexico ... take a look at these statistics for Germany between 1990-2018 for their FIFA World Cup
opening matches against an opponent. Germany 'always' wins and sometimes 'slaughters' the other team. The numbers tell it all.
Mexico and their coach deserve a huge high-five for this upset.

Thanks, Willard!
Funny.
As I watched the Fox-sport guys - and I concur -there were 70-80% Mexico fans / Germany fans in that Russian stadium! Wow.
