When the teams are a close as these two were then the one used to the conditions will gain the edge as the game goes longer. Why do you think Mexico play their home games at over 10,000 feet? Bolivia play at even higher altitude and apparently have a great record at home.
Sure, that's a fair point. I could see that we were OK tactically from midway of the first half (which is why it was not a bad game for us) but fizzled out in the second half. But as I said earlier tonight, if it was going to be no more than 2:1 loss, so we did not disgrace ourselves, by a long shot (well....)
