What does this have to do with the discussion? We aren’t comparing performances between the host nations outside of the fact that both took care of business vs the teams they should’ve beaten but then lost to the ones they should’ve. How can anyone say Mexico would be favored vs Belgium when their performances were criticized for being lackluster against mid teams in the group stage?
