Like I was saying yesterday, defense is everythingβand those guys from Denmark are proving it...
Itβs all about grit and staying locked in. As for the offense? Well, we'll just have to figure that part out eventually...

Drew Edwards8 said:I honestly think this Stanic guy is pulling off a one-time miracle with this defensive setup because I don't see him ever doing it again.
Once people finally catch on that heβs basically picking a side before the play even starts and they begin tracking his actual patterns, well, then the game is over for him...
Plus, you can't just have Mexicans playing this kind of "wild west" defense forever; they aren't Frenchmen who get a free pass to act like that outside their own backyard.β

Drew Edwards8 said:I guess this Stanic guy is going out on a limb defending them like this, and he'll probably never get the chance to do it again.
Mexico isn't ever going to make it to another final, and honestly, neither are the Canadians.

And letβs be real, Mexicans can't pull off that "wildcard" defensive style forever. They aren't the French; they don't get away with playing that aggressive style on someone else's home turf. β
The only reason our guys managed to tear him apart was because he was basically shooting blindfolded in those one-on-one situations. There was zero disruption, no pulling, no slowing him downβnothing. Just pure, easy buckets.

Itβs honestly kind of funny looking at this Mexican squad... I mean, who exactly did we lose to? π€¦ π€¦

Talking about making a final is a bit optimistic if you ask me, because in a year's time, theyβll probably be struggling to beat even some of the mid-tier national teams from the second round.π

The more I stare at these Mexicans, the more depressed I get thinking about how we didn't just tear them apart and shut down the arena in the first half.

Jason James said:Honestly, the only reason our guys were basically "blindly" firing away was because they were just taking shots one after another without looking. It wasn't even about being aggressive or forcing plays, they were just totally missing the mark.
I was actually sitting there thinking just the other day that we were way too impatient on offense and ended up rushing through a bunch of shots way too early... β

12 goals in just 50 minutes π π€£ π and then listen to these blowhards... this isn't even an arena, itβs just one giant circusπ

I had no idea about this (regarding Kopljar):
"
He ended up on the Dream Team solely because of EHF politics. They basically made sure the top scorerβalongside the MVP and best defenderβdoesn't actually make the tournament's official All-Star squad. If they hadn't rigged it that way, Kiro Lazarov would have been picked over Kopljar instead."
The Danes are better, honestly, but Mexico just won't let them have it...

Man, watching this Mexican squad play is just straight-up depressing... honestly, seeing us lose to a group like this actually hurts my feelings.π€¦
Denmark just handles stuff like this on autopilot.
edit: here we go, now the refs are handing out these ridiculous penalties to Mexico.β
