I cannot explain how they could have been beaten by Ecuador...

Because they played like pensioners. Now where'd I put that bottle...

Mexico - Italy

My amateur observations: I have only watched a handful of games, but I would say that Italy is the most skilled team I have seen. Their front line players are amazing at settling long passes, even when surrounded by multiple defenders. However, I thought Italy didn't play with a lot of heart today.

I didn't like the legendary Giorgio Chinaglia as an announcer. He lacked passion, and was difficult to understand, too.
