hard luck on men who had connection problems, me eh worried even though we-ah mean Brazil-lose, Brazil still going further than Mexico in this. That disallowed goal though, meh eh know nah. Yuh have to love Gol TV for putting ah cacahole Mexican announcer for this game, even when Brazil was dominating the 2nd half and throwing away goals like it going out ah style, he even get the other announcer to agree that Mexico doing ah good job defending, ah had to wonder if ah was watching the same game as dem. Credit to Castillo though.

Nah, Mexico really did a good job of defending, clearing ball off the line...keeper making real on reflex stops....

Binho was MOM for me... Well done Mexico

Anderson and Binho were hands down Brazil's liveliest players... Anderson looks decent..needs to stop trying so hard though...

Hard luck Brazil. Mexico executed well in the first half and that was it. Brazil chased the game well but couldn't finish. Mexico sat back and soaked up the pressure and tried to hit Brazil on the break. If Castillo wasn't so selfish or had a right foot..Mexico coulda killa Brazil off with 2 easy breakaway goals. At the same time, with a little luck, Brazil could have hauled their way back into the game. They made some very good chances.

Great goals by Mexico

bad night for Diego. but not him alone. Robinho was the best player on the pitch. He looked like a different class. Partly because he was forced to carry Brazil on his shoulders and was at times a one man show.

Mexico's recent record against Brazil is very impressive. Lewwe see if the boys from Braaahzeeew could rebound.

Yeah..he's young and still a little raw. You could tell his instructions were to go on and try to run at the defense

Yeah i like him though..but as RedDevils said.. Fergie will groom him into a great player...he is a little raw..but what i like about him most is that he seems to enjoy his football.. like how the ambitious old ronaldinho did before cars houses and women turned his love into greed

Wow guys, I know everyone entitle to they own opinion...but usually i'm in the majority. Tonight i'm definitely not though...on this Anderson thing.
Firstly it hard to judge somebody after only seeing them once, but boy am I glad Scholes ent retire yet. This guy to me look NOTHING like 17 million pounds or whatever it was, wheras 1st time I saw Cristiano I could tell he had something in him to make Sir Alex spend that money. Fergie the boss always but I sure hope is not Quiroz or whaeva he name chain him on this guy. Best thing I saw of Anderson was his vision/passing, other than that Scholes hada put him under serious training. Somebody mention his runs/dribbling...unsuccessful full stop. No running off the ball whatsoeva, d only playmaker I know who don't go in search of the ball and still is a boss is Riquelme. The guy come on halftime...u hear that....HALFTIME pal, and noooo energy at all so how allyuh could say he was lively I don't know. Finally the thing i'm most concerned about for him in England is that he will be moved off the ball way too easily...them Mexican like 5 foot 6 and 120 pounds and put him off d ball like nothing...so imagine a Makalele or Mascherano up against this guy. Michael Owen same size but he dont get bully and he also have pace to make up for lack of size...I dont know how Anderson gonna do it. I hope in the months to come he prove me wrong bcuz I Man U all the way but IMHO I hope Sir Alex make him a bit part player this season and give him Carling Cup and such. Playing a man like Hargreaves in training will b good for this guy. bless

Brazil is only overrated by those who know nothing about football. Everyone who has a clue about the game knows that there is no such thing as an invincible team in the modern day game.

There was a time when you could say that Brazil beat its opposition b4 stepping on the pitch- rarely true in the modern day game against quality opponents.

Mexico showed Brazil alot of respect. They sat back for long periods in the match, soaked up pressure, countered efficiently and took their chances early o'clock. Brazil had more than enough chances to pull the game back in the second half, and at the same time Mexico coulda opened the scoreline on the counter.

If people remember correctly, last copa America where Argentina had bomb squad that was leaps and bounds above the competition incl Brazil- Mexico beat them(Arg) 1-0 in the opening round.

Brazil real throw way in truth. But all credit to Mexico. Brazil did not look like a team at all, very unorganized defensively and too much individual play offensively. The main problem seems to be their pla maker Robinho who was holding on to the ball too long. I still feel they will get it right come game 2.
On anothe note, did Love even play?

Why this fool-ass announcer pronouncing Castillo name as 'Cas-tee-jho'? *steups*

Trying to get fancy. True yuh in Venezuela, but Mexico does not speak Castillan.

meanwhile Castillo self like he playing small goal...trying tuh walk goal in.

Hard luck Robinho...off the crossbar.

bake and shark...thats because in spanish you pronounce the double ll like a y sound a bit....so thus Castillo would more sound like Cas-tee-yo........hence the same thing with Casillas its pronounced Casi-jyas (silence on dat j tho)..

I don't think he was commenting on the pronunciation of the "ll" as "y"- I think he was commenting on the soft "j" sound.

If I had to comment on it, I would say that Castillo, though he plays for Mexico, is actually Uruguayan/Greek....and Uruguayans like Argentinians have an accent that pronounces "ll" like a soft "j" .... silla shounds like sijha...alla sounds like ajha...etc. etc..

As well if you watched the game on GolTV, it's a Uruguayan channel with most of the native Spanish speaking commentators on there of Uruguayan descent- hence the Uruguayan pronunciation of Cas-tee-jho....

I watched the game on Telefutura- unless Ray Hudson is commenting, I prefer the spanish commentators- as cheezy as they may be.....but based on the post, that is my guess as to what he's referring to...

SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) - Brazil's lackluster debut in the Copa America displeased fans and has local media doubting the team's chances in the South American competition.

Brazil fell 2-0 to a depleted Mexican team Wednesday night, adding pressure on coach Dunga in his first official competition in command of the five-time world champions.

"Dunga fails in his first official match," read a headline Thursday in Brazil's largest newspaper, the Folha de S. Paulo.

"Shameful debut," the Estado de S. Paulo newspaper said a front-page headline, adding that "Dunga's official debut couldn't have been worse."

Mexico, without several regular starters, got past the Brazilians with first-half goals by Nery Castillo and Ramon Morales.

"Mexico didn't play that well," said former Brazil midfielder turned TV commentator Falcao. "It was Brazil that had an awful match."

The Brazilians will need to rebound against Chile on Sunday. The Chileans beat Ecuador 3-2 on Wednesday and lead Group B along with Mexico.

"Brazil now has a decisive match against Chile," the Estado daily said. "The elimination could happen in the first round with another defeat."

Dunga has revamped the Brazilian squad, using only six players from the team that participated in the 2006 World Cup. Kaka and Ronaldinho requested to skip the competition to enjoy a vacation following the European season.

I find Anderson was a non factor in that game......but thas my opinion.He eh do nothing really.........I know he only play 2nd half. The best thing he do was cross the ball for "The man" to volley that Mexicop keeper save....that was a good cross, nice shot and really good save !

I would have instinctively thought that had the announcer calling the game been Spanish...was he? He didn't sound spanish at all, maybe he just speaks very unaccented English.

that said...yes, the double "ll" is pronounced as a 'y' would in a majority of Spanish-speaking countries, but in certain ones, mainly South American ones, the "ll" is pronounced as a soft 'j'...much as the French do when saying 'Bon Jour'. This is the Castillian pronunciation, derived from the dialect of southern Spain. Didn't know that GOL was Uruguayan doh...or Castillo for that matter...in which case the pronunciation may be correct. It just sounded very affected, coming from a Yankee-sounding announcer.
