Mexico won one of the most exciting USMNT vs. El Tri clashes in recent memory on Saturday, and they were understandably excited with the result.
The game didn't just send Mexico to the 2017 Confederations Cup in Russia, it reestablished Mexico as the dominant team in CONCACAF, as Mexico noted with some smack-talk on Twitter after the game.
Hey @ussoccer... ¡Pero sigo siendo el Rey! #ElFutbolEsNuestro
— Selección Nacional (@miseleccionmx) October 11, 2015"Sigo siendo el Rey," for those whose high school Spanish is a little rusty, translates to "still the king." So Mexico are letting the USMNT know that El Tri are still the kings of CONCACAF.
"Sigo Siendo el Rey" is also the title of a mariachi song by Vicente Fernandez, which we have here for your listening pleasure.
After Saturday's game, El Tri is the king, and the USMNT has been relegated to court jester.
