Liveblogging Iran vs Mexico

Halftime: ABC commentary very, very bizarre. Iran has been playing BRILLIANTLY against Mexico from this soccer novice's point of view. The American commentators, however, Alexi Lala (???) and deep voiced older guy are obsessed with Ahmedinadinajab's...(???) obsession with nuclear arms and Holocaust denial. Also mentioned were John McCain's attempts to get FIFA to ban the Iranian team from play, as well as the threat [sic] that Ahmedadinajab (???) would show up in Germany to watch his team play.

Right now, Iran has played Mexico to a draw 1 to 1 with 45 minutes to go. Mexico has not been playing very well and scored because of Iran's fouls. So far, for today, Serbia Montenegro has been most conspicuous in terms of their inablity to control the ball and their willingness to interrupt the flow of play by fouling everything in sight. Still the Netherlands won.

But what do I know about soccer?
