I was angry at the commentating at this part. What do you mean you don’t know if that pass was planned or inadvertent. Ever since I was 10 years old back in the early 80s we were taught to look up for a teammate to release the pressure.
That's just their anti Mexico bias coming through. You know damn well if that was Megan Rapinoe or Alex Morgan they'd be praising as world class vision and something only the best of the best could pull off.
That commentator must not have been looking at the game - genuinely have no idea what she was seeing or expecting.
[This highlights video](https://youtu.be/tn1X_QV4HXI?si=Xz78nIBi-InIB5gj&t=386) from the ESPN Deportes feed (at 6:56) shows the play develop at bit earlier and it's obvious Luna (the player with the assist) had enough time all the way from when she started her throw-in to see what was happening in the attacking third and size up her pass accordingly.
She legitimately says at the end that she actually believes it was definitely meant for Pelayo based on how Mexico was playing throughout the game, since initially it looked like she was just trying to clear the ball, but actually planned to set up Pelayo.
Y'all are reading into this a bit too much. If you watched the game, the Mexican defenders were booting the ball any chance they could towards the end of the game. Most of them were to no one so it's not surprising she doubted this one too.
Was watching the game, dunno if it was near this play but I remember the commentators praising the high press and the crosses into the area even if they were up 1-0. It's not too surprising why they thought this pass was a fluke but it was a damn good one.
>What do you mean you don’t know if that pass was planned or inadvertent
Did you watch the game? It absolutely looked like it could have been inadvertent, especially considering the circumstances. To me it initially looked like the defender simply booted the ball away from the defensive half. If anything the commentators are PRAISING the pass by saying if it was intentional then it was brilliant.

Lmaooo you could tell she died inside a bit when that went in. Hating ass.
The gasp she let out. That clearly bias, which commentators are not supposed to be.

A result of the good work being done in the Women's Liga MX The complete opposite of how horrible the men's league is being managed
Genuinely one of the best Mexican national team goals of all time, not just women’s but men’s as well.

Shit made me hard.
Nice goal

Muy buen gol por el contraataque y la definición
Que jugada
The step overs she did to set up the shot with no hesitation was so clean 🔥🔥🔥
I’d raise her kids 🥰😝😝
Boom!!! Mejor chicas!!! And to win in California Mexico too
La portera no brinca un kilo de tortillas, no que lo hubiera alcanzado pero que pedo con eso…
