Anyone watching this? Missed the first 25 minutes or so of the Mexico - Portugal game; the remainder of the first half has been entertaining. 1 - 1 now with a pair of well-taken goals by Quaresma and Hernandez.
I'm interested to see how Diego Reyes, the Mexico centre back (no. 5) does. He played for Espanyol last season, on loan from Porto. Showed good pace in the first half when he reacted quickly and raced 20 yards or so to close down Ronaldo, who had a head start after capitalizing on the Mexican right fullback's mistake in judging a high ball. Portugal still scored on that possession though, because the rest of the defenders fell asleep and allowed Ronaldo a pass to the unmarked Quaresma, who coolly shuffled the ball and let Ochoa slide past before slotting home.
