Dos Santos makes it 1-0 in the 6th minute. The keeper saved de Nigris's shot but dos Santos scored on the rebound.

That little Fig Dos Santos appears to have trimmed his locks.

At least B-H doesn't seem to be totally outmanned here like Wales was against Mexico on Sunday.

Dzeko ties it after a nice backfoot pass from Mizimovic!

A fine, upstanding fan throws a smoke bomb on the pitch.

WE ARE ALL BOSNIANS TODAY!!!







I think Chicago has a pretty substantial Eastern European/Balkan population.

Looks like dos Santos may have done something a little dirty there on that last play.

There is a huge Bosnian population in St. Louis. A friend of mine lives there and said her small suburban town is nearly half Bosnian. They had Bosnian classes at school, and most signs were in Bosnian and English. Maybe some of them made the trip.

Great defense there by Bosnia to keep Hernandez from giving Mexico the lead there.

That's true, NewtonReb. Chicago has a significant population of Serbs and Croats but I don't know what the Bosnijak population numbers. I do know there are a lot of Mexicans in Chicago.

I think one of them was just hauled off by security.

Wow, a mis-clearance by a Bosnian defender on a bicycle kick attempt allows Hernadez to get a sliding shot by the keeper and gives Mexico a 2-1 lead in stoppage time.

Match over

Judging by the shower of debris that rained down on Chicharito after he scored I would say that there were large numbers of Bosnijaks in attendance.

Well, hanging on the end he scored on, I saw a big banner that said, "Hardcore Bosnians On Tour".
