Mexico Wins the World Cup!!!

Can't Post | Private Reply
Okay, it wasn't the national team, it was the junior men, but still. The match against Germany the other night couldn't have been written better by Hollywood's finest. And last night they beat Uruguay in the final. Much partying in Mexico City last night, and this early afternoon, friends and I happened to be near "El Ángel" just as the young champions were arriving on parade to the throngs of gatherers and celebrants. What a great time!

Congratulations Mexico!

You won't believe this, or maybe you will if you live lakeside (I live in Ajijic, where almost none of us speak Esp.), and
none of the 8 English only speaking friends in Ajijic I questioned even knew about the game yesterday, or watched it. Most of them only have Shaw Direct, and therefore were not given the opportunity to watch, or even knew about the game. Luckily I also have Mexican Telecable and was able to watch the game. My Esp. is only OK and sadly I did not understand all of the Esp. that the announcer spoke, but enough to know that we won.

It was the FIFA world championship, no? Not the World Cup which is another thing altogether.

They are the same thing. This event was the FIFA World Championship/World Cup Sub-17
