No they aren’t. The problem is that CONCACAF refs let them get away with being pieces of shit. 

Mexico runs CONCACAF. This is objective fact. Look at all the calls they get--the cards dished out to other teams but the same standard is never applied to them. Remember the 2015 Gold Cup? Refs carried El Tri past not one but TWO teams.

Mexico was clearly the better side today, but they have the worst case of performance anxiety in front of goal in key matches of any team ever. So the Canadian ref did his best to help them, including withholding an obvious red (or not enforcing it despite showing it) while handing out cautions to the Qataris as if they were candy at a parade ... yet it still wasn't enough.

greece won euro 2004 on one shot, like today, a header, and had 30+ saves, defeating the hosts in the final

Not that it matters, but Greece had more than one shot and definitely did not make 30 saves. Your mind has, uh, embellished that over the decades, sir.

I’ll laugh at Mexico because why not?

But given they had already won the group, meh, not like the result matters. 

Supposedly there were 70K L Tri fans in Santa Clara last night to cheer on their losers.
