Hernandez stays onside (barely) and makes it 1-0 Mexico


22-year-old forward Javier Hernandez just scores the biggest goal of his life, also his first World Cup strike, to give Mexico a vital 1-0 lead in the 64th minute.

Rafael Marquez hit a good ball to him and Hernandez just stayed onside long enough to gather it and go in alone on Lloris.

Mexico has never beaten a former World Cup champion (0-11-5) and 70% of teams that score first have won the game in this World Cup.

Strange substitution for France: they needed a forward but didn't go with Cisse or Henry. Instead Sidney Govou came out for Mathieu Valbuena, who looks like a bouncer at a Jersey Shore bar. Nice.

1-0 Mexico in the 70th minute. They've showed a couple pathetic shots of Henry sitting on the bench, covered by a blanket. What does this tell you about his form?
