The US owns Mexico in the last 3 years. I think they have lost once out of 10 matches. The US won the qualifying group that Mexico was also in, and the US won the last major tournament where both teams were involved.
FIFA claims that their seeds were based on a formula which included performance over the last 3 World Cups, which still doesn't work, as the US was in the quarterfinals of the last two. It is politics. No one wants to admit that the US has a world class team, but in the latest world rankings, they are number 6, ahead of such teams as France, Spain, Portugal, and Mexico.
Sonia, Portugal is not as good as they used to be. Mexico should have no problems. I will cheer for them until the moment of truth comes. Then, I go back to red, white and blue.
