Interesting comment from Brad Friedel this morning about Mexico

He claims they come at you for the first 15-20 minutes, high press, high paced, “trying to suffocate you” but if you can survive that part then they themselves run out of energy and in his opinion it slows down and he believes England would then outclass them.

Mind you if he’s right then the hydration break thing might suit Mexico. They could play high tempo for ten minutes at the start of each “quarter” and then it’s much harder to get a handle on.
