I watched the game intently, suffering with every German attack, fearing that they were going to tie the game. I was elated when the final whistle blew. I thought Mexico could have won by 2 or 3 goals if they converted half of their breakaway runs.
I was there with "Pique" in Mexico 86 (El Mundo unido por un balon). Got to see Brasil- Poland, Brasil-France, and Germany-France. Saw Zico and Platini miss penalty kicks. Awesome environment and hope to experience it again in 2026.
