The World Cup Group C opener for El Tri and The White and Reds had a lot of drama at Stadium 974 in Doha, Qatar. Earlier in Group C action, Saudi Arabia upset Messi and Argentina, 2-1 in one of the biggest upsets in FIFA World Cup history.
Here's social media reaction to Mexico's 0-0 against Poland, earning both squads a point in a group that is now led by Saudi Arabia
Were these fans cheering El Tri or did somebody find a some Modelo Especial?
The Mexicans want their beer ??

Can El Tri keep its streak going against Poland? ? pic.twitter.com/wcKSzyxodr
We can also add that along with Brazil, Mexico is the only country to have made it out of every group stage since the 1994 WC.

Ochoa, blocks more than just headers, shots and penalty kicks on goal. ESPN Mexico personality Alvaro Morales, forgives 'Memo' for blocking him on Twitter, but only if he stops the shot...

Surely households all over Mexico have dusted off their 'altar' to 'Saint' Memo, known for his brilliant saves in World Cups that keep El Tri alive in matches.
