The way it's looking we should give some serious consideration to playing in a low block ourselves and using the counter attack, cut our cloth accordingly.

Over 2,000 metres above sea level in Mexico City
About 6pm ? Local time
Gonna be warm and hard to breathe I would imagine
We've almost certainly got the better players overall but...

A 50 50 call, imo

Shouldn't be too warm Reg, low 20's but humid - rain about all week there.

Tommy Tuchel seems to have inherited Southgate's good fortune, easyish groups, preferred side of the draw for KO's and managing to stumble through somehow against limited opponents. But whatever happens he should get pelters for his dreadful squad selection, the defence looks very suspect and that's mainly down to him.

OK Dixie, conditions maybe not as bad as I thought regarding temperatures, but the altitude could be a big problem for us
Wouldn't want to be playing this Senegal lot next round, they're useful

Altitude (and humidity) then Miami heat at 5pm 6 days later. You wouldn't want to be going to ET in either of those. Could be fatal even if you win both in 90. Hope Norway beat Brazil too. Makes the Argies draw look even more handy.

Altitude will be a challenge but they played South Africa in the Azteca and hardly blew them away and the saffers were poor.

Abba, when I posted about Senegal being useful they were 2-0 up and controlling the game
albeit Belgium had been rubbish up until then
I said earlier on another thread during the match that they might fold if they conceded which they did, and Belgium then started playing OK
Your comment about me knowing nothing about football came after the match had finished and Senegal had gone out, easy to say that then

I think this match mirrored the England one, in the sense that the pre match underdogs, both African teams, played far better than expected and were deservedly leading, and if they'd had the ability to close out a game, Senegal would have won and so would DR Congo without the Kane factor.

Apologies Abba, I realise your comment was about halfway through ET, but still by then Senegal had gone mentally through conceding those 2 late goals in normal time

ABBA peaked at schoolboy level but only made 1 appearance before being dropped after a hat trick of Own Goals, not that he was bothered he backed over 2.5

The Saffers acclimatised at even higher altitude in Pachuca for 9 days before the match and they are more used to altitude.

Mexico are beatable but England aren't beating anyone comfortably and the draining effect of altitude + heat in Miami is a major disadvantage for England beyond the teams they'll have to face.

About time the Mexicans conceded a goal.England haven't played that well yet,
we've got the players to do it & if we do click we can match most teams.
By:

When: 02 Jul 26 13:58
I don't think 9 days acclimitisation is long enough, need a month to really increase red blood cell count,  the 9 days may have helped them with adjusting heart rates and breathing but that takes days 3-4 days. If England hold out for the first hydration break, during which Mexico will attempt to tire England out with pressing as they do to every opponent and hold onto to a 1-0 lead, then it will help as you don't want to be chasing at altitude at the very least.
