AFP reports they and Chile were booed off the field. Mexico does that when it can afford to, like that game against Italy in the '02 World Cup. But the point for Chile puts them at 4 points and third place. Uruguay was already at 4 points and third place. The United States could beat Colombia 31-0 and it wouldn't be enough; three points is less than four, so we'll play a meaningless game (Colombia is in the same boat as us) and go home. I'm an endless USA fan -- mi pais, mi equipo -- but I don't think I'll bother watching. Paraguay-Argentina has a lot more potential to be interesting. Loser plays Mexico in the quarters. Winner plays Mexico in the semis. Mexico isn't going to bore anyone in those games. Mexico only needed a draw to advance in first place, and they didn't try very hard for a win.
