    Mexicans were really good. I watched the match. They defended well and attacked only few times but everytime they looked dangerous. They could have scored a couple of more goals too. Brazil's game was a treat to eye as they were playing skillful game but lacked finishing dearly. It was more due to tight defence of Mexico. Brazil's game reminded me of Netherlands in the Euro 2012

I watch him in the Brazilian league and he can get around 4 defenders easy there but internationally he cant. He has what it takes, he just needs to play against defenders like that week in, week out.</div>

    <br><div><br></div><div>Yep. My dad told me a few days ago that if he had to pick the u23 team with 3 over 23 that he would choose an overage goalkeeper first. I disagreed but he proved me wrong.</div>

    Coach Tena opted for Corona over Ochoa as overage player. Everybody in media and fans criticized for this decision as Ochoa had more experience outside of Mexico.<br>I was there in Mexico last week and after Japan win everybody started praising Tena. Also he certainly got tips from the senior coach as he knew how to shut down Neymar threat from the previous friendly clash where Mexico had won 2-0 and in that game also Neymar could not do much either.<br>
