Mexico just had a goal ruled offside that was onside. Just me watching?

 

Unfair goal ruled out again for Mexico. And you Croatia fans were annoyed by the ref

 

Goalll! 1-0 mexico, very much deserved.

 

Are you Dutch? I think they'll go out at the group stage tbh, Chile are a good team too.

Bumped for the Croats?

 

I think Croatia will stroll to a win tonight. Cameroon are really poor and you were really good against Brazil.
