Very impressed with Mexico in that first half. They play the perfect blend of possession football and counter-attacking football.
2 banks of 4 with good, intelligent pressing and fast direct counter-attacking when they win the ball to exploit the exposed space. But what they can also do is play possession football if Germany get back into position. They have patience to keep the ball and pass the ball around to drag Germany out of position.
I would love to see WBA play like this next season and we probably can. A front 4 of Phillips on the right, a new signing in a similar style to Lozano on the left and then Bobby Reid behind Matej Vydra.
