Upset win?

Upset win? According to Reuters, the US defeat of Mexico was an 'upset.'

Hmmmm. The US has won 4 of their last 5 meetings with Mexico, not counting this mornings game. How is a fifth victory an upset? Yes, Mexico won their group, and the US finished second in theirs, but Mexico was in a weaker group than the US.

Ah well, a win is a win. Next up Germany, and they look very good.
