I only watched part of the first half last night because of the late start, but it was obvious from the first half that the US team was going to dominate that game.
I woke up to see the result and all the news stories about the disaster the second half turned out to be. The worst part about all of that is that it's not even remotely unexpected. Everyone pretty much knows that if Mexico doesn't have a chance to win, they're going to simply resort to being thugs. And their fans are as bad as always. Heck, I'm sure there's a lot of decent Mexican fans out there, but man, they have to figure out some way to get them under control (or punish the heck out of them).
Sucks for the US to end up without McKinney and Dest for the finals, but they needed to keep cooler heads last night - especially Dest. His retaliation RC was pretty stupid. Westin, I can understand - the Mexican thugs baited him into that one and went at him with three or four guys.
