A lot of guys on here want this sport to grow and gain more fans, but when they find out a casual soccer fan rooted for what seemed to be like an underdog (which is a natural instinct in sports) they want to chew their arse out and accuse them of not being a real fan.



Let's be honest, there is a lot of trumped up hate for Mexico because US soccer fans want a rivalry so they can mimic our European and South American counterparts. It's a little forced. Doesn't mean we shouldn't hate them, but most of the people claiming to hate them have no first hand experience.

It's not forced at all. In terms of international soccer, US/Mexico is one of the best.
