WC Qualifiers: USA Spanks Mexico in Columbus

Last night the United States Men's Team continued its dominance over Mexico on home soil with an authoritative 2-0 win, putting it in the pole position in CONCACAF qualifying. Mexico played like a Sven-Goren Eriksson team- mostly well organized, cautious on the break, wasteful in midfield and poor in front of goal. Rafa Marquez, supposedly Mexico's best player, came up small again with another untimely red card for a cheap foul and longtime Mexico keeper Oswaldo Sanchez looked past it, leaking a goal under his armpit in second half stoppage time that any second rate keeper would have smothered.
Mexico's misery in Columbus continues
Bradley comes of age against Mexico
Time running out for Sven as Mexico crash
