Mexico

One of the favorites for the title of this Gold Cup, the champion is still on the fight, and the team just have two considerable absences Jared Borguetti (cards) and Carlos Salcido (sickness). But they are important players to supplied them, I hope apart from Rafael Marquez Lugo, Aaron Padilla takes his opportunity to show his quality, and also Ismael Rodriguez (who will take Salcidos place, if the player doesn't recover). So the team could loss presence in sky balls but win speed.

Also after surprise loss against Southafrica they have managed to collect to wins and by shoutout, haven't receive goal there, and that is really important.

Colombia

Lost with Panama and Honduras, and was able only to beat Trinidad and Tobago, the coach never hide their intention to use this tournament as a laboratory for the qualification to Germany 2006.

If they get to the quartefinals was becuase the rules of this tournament award a place to the best three places, and thanks to winning to Trinidad and Tobago they get to play Mexico in this game. So they will have to finish with decor their participation on the Cup.

The probable lineups for tonight:

Mexico: Moises Muñoz, Hector Altamirano, Francisco Rodriguez, Ricardo Osorio, Carlos Salcido, Gonzalo Pineda, Luis Perez, Antonio Naelson, Gerardo Galindo, Alberto Medina and Rafael Marquez Lugo.
Colombia: Farid Ali Mondragon, Yulian Anchico, Oscar Enrique Passo, Humberto Mendoza, Aldo Leo Ramirez, Jose Julian De La Cuesta, Jairo Patiño, Jaime Castrillon, Abel Aguilar, Juan Fernando Leal and Martin Arzuaga.

The mexican play a long season,at first the team was sucessful at the confederations cup in germany and at the moment they have a full-time program at the gold cup in the USA.
The green-red-whites are first of their group and have won the cup 4times ago, at last in 2004!
The minor point is,that a great storm is comming to mexico, the players are professional I know,but this is a to allow point I think.

..But, the mexicans better and they will win this match,..I hope so :loon
