    BTW - this does not put Mexico in, they still have to beat New Zealand and that is a big if at this time.

    I can't believe Mexico had to rely on the US to save us from elimination. We have really played bad, but I'm just glad it's not over

    where will the game be held? If it's not at Azteca, they're toast

    It's in New Zealand I believe. Though I thought I read somewhere recently that it is a 2 game bout. One in each home country. But if I totally made that last bit up, it's in New Zealand.

    The way Mexico is playing that play in game is going to be tough.

    Home and home playoff. The game in Mexico is basically guaranteed to be at Azteca.

    lol there has probably never been a Mexican visit New Zealand EVER. Can't imagine they'll have many fans there.

    I actually once ate at a Mexican restaurant in New Zealand that had carrots in their "pico de gallo". No kidding.

    We don't deserve to go to the World Cup playing like this. It is almost a mediocre showing from all the players, save for probably just Peralta, Raul Jimenez, and the Argentinean Gimenez. :( Doesn't feel right at all.

    About the only good thing was beating Panama on Friday and for that the end result of this might be fair for both teams, but being Mexico and Panama, I don't think we played better than them. I'm pissed at our showing. I sincerely hope we do better against the Kiwis. :mad:

    This is how I feel. We don't deserve this, panama seems more deserving right now. If we do make it I just hope we don't make a fool of ourselves. Mexico is my team though, so I'm glad we are at least still alive

    August 20,1980 New Zealand 4-0 Mexico at New Zealand
    March 3, 2010 Mexico 2-0 New Zealand at Los Angeles
    June 1, 2011 Mexico 1-0 New Zealand at Denver

    I think that's it, but there could be more.

    It'll be a home-and-home series. Oceania is so weak, I think Mexico should make it to the World Cup. Then again, the "should" have never been in this position.

    Mexico is playing very mediocre. :mad:

    Chicharito is playing garbage now. first missing a PK against Panama, and then missing one of the easiest goals that I have seen.

    and yes thanks to US! :eek:

    and they are going to play two games, in mid-november against New Zealand.
