    Worst call ever - CR out of the Gold Cup

    How could the ref make that call? Was no foul anyway and giving Mexico a penalty kick at the 120+ minute mark? Should have already ended and gone to kicks.

    I dont watch tons of soccer but how do you let a QF knockout end like that?

    I saw that live, thank god I had no $ on it. First thing I thought was fix. They play all that time, only to give it to Mexico at the very end before penAlty kicks? Someone didn't wanna see Mexico in a toss up penalty shootout

    There's nothing anyone could possibly say to convince me this isn't fixed.. Not only is that clearly not a foul you never ever call that with the game on the line with basically no time left. Ref should be banned for life and that Mexican soccer player who flopped like a betch should have to spend 24 hrs with seaweed.

    To be honest, Mexico should have won it in regulation with all the chances they had. Yes, that was a soft x 10 pk.

    Yea right, think they would take the chance of Mexico getting out of tournament? There are 100 Mexicans to 1 Costa Rican in USA, Money is king final game USA vs Mexico , and this coming from a Mexican, game was given to mexico

    I guess in Mexico they get 2 minutes extra extra time How the clock is at nearly 122 minutes is beyond me.

    Another victory for flopping.

    You have to train soccer player the same way you train dogs. When they flop, swat them on the nose with a newspaper and tell them "NO", and start booking them for it. Instead, you're teaching them that flopping = winning. Can't take it anymore.

    The whole game looked a fix. Hey rigged or not - a better should be able to spot that and go with flow (says the guy who hedged out at 55 minutes ..)

    Mexico should have won 7-0 with all chances missed. Better team advanced and that's how it should be.

    say what? the best team does not always win on the field of play, that is the only real reason to watch sports as totally exactly balanced teams or exact even players are not a common situation! Play it out. possible 7-0 or not score a real goal.

    I have tickets for semis and did not want to watch Costa Rica playing defense 90 minutes again to go to penalties.

    soccer is flawed because of penalty kicks

    One can say not true winners in many games

    Now you'll get to watch Mexico fail to hit the goal 10-15 times and then score at 108 minutes (probably a missed offside call).
    Then the US will get to hammer some other country and it's all set up for a hate game.. (sorry i'm just monday morning angry)

    There'd be more real action in this entertainment if Cops would run a special on catching those cuban defectors. La migra 2015!

    Terrible way to leave a tournament. The game should've been called, it was into extra-extra time, and didn't the second official call it? How did he have a better view of it then the main ref. Ridiculous.

    Bad call

    Mexico should of scored about 19x before this incident. Should have went to pk's, too bad CR.
