Bocanegra's father is of Mexican descent but his mother is an anglo American. Every uninformed soccer DWF stupidly assumes the more hispanic players the better. However, outside of playing Mexico at Azteca stadium which is hardest stadium for a visiting team , maybe in the whole world , other than the Gold Cup championship when
Bob Bradley fielded a team of scrubs who had no business wearing the US national team jersey, the has US has been undefeated against Mexico for the past approximately 7 years. But in our PC anti-white society , this fact is always ignored since denigrating whites has become the national pastime. The current US National team is doing well without the team dominated by hispanics and inner city blacks.
The US finished ahead of Mexico with the best record in Concacaf . At the Confederations Cup ,the mostly white US national team after first 2 game during which the US received undeserved red cards which essentially gave Italy the victory , when the referee stopped cheating against the US , they beat Egypt which destroyed the defending world champion Italians, defeated Spain which had a 36 game unbeaten streak, and really should have beaten Brazil except the US doesn't have a world class coach and it probably caused the loss to Brazil in the finals.
