Central America against Mexico





Today at 9:30 PM EST, three Football matches will be held in Central America and the Caribbean that will decide the fate of the former Footballing giant Mexico, and the able Panamanian Football team. The much hated Mexican team (in Central America that is) will be facing Costa Rica at their National Stadium in San Jose, for the last chance to the half ticket to Brazil 2014. But getting that ticket as we may say won’t be easy, since they depend on the Panamanian team to lose to the USA and the Honduran team to lose to Jamaica, so in a way it’s out of their hands but of course they put themselves in that situation by not defeating teams which they themselves consider inferior. The Jamaicans will be playing for honor at the National stadium against Honduras, since they are already eliminated but will be sure to give a good fight. One thing is for sure, the Central Americans are united in the feeling of hate towards the Mexican Football team, and Mexican journalists that in their opinion, give the Mexican team more credit than they deserve. Mexican sports journalists have gone to the extreme of even claiming that the Costa Rican team sold themselves to the Hondurans, in the game in which they lost 1-0 at San Pedro Sula in Honduras, and such comment not only outraged the Hondurans but also the Costa Rican coach Pinto, and the Costa Rican players. The Central Americans show such animosity against the Mexicans to say the least due to the lack of respect exerted on them by the Mexicans for many decades in which Central American players were made a fool of by the Mexican sports media. I for sure will watch one game on cable TV and the two others on separate laptops, so as not to miss a thing.
