Mexico and Argentina split points in violent and controversial game.

Mexico and Argentina literally fought to a 2-2 tie in a U22 friendly game played in Ciudad Juarez. The game was a rough affair which had controversial calls, a red card, and a fight in between bad calls by the refereeing crew. Argentina might have reason to complain after they got a goal called back for an offside that shouldn’t have been and a penalty kick that looked like a dive. Mexico meanwhile should complain of not being able to get the win even when up a man and how they didn’t do enough to be the better team, although it’s was a good test.
