This Duck Is On The Teamsheet

A mock-serious tactical breakdown of Merlin the duck — Mexico's most committed, most underutilized World Cup supporter. Full kit. Zero yellow cards. Not deployed.

Meet Merlin. Mexico jersey. Tiny shoes. Zero yellow cards across all competitions. Walked to the match on foot. Not deployed against South Africa.
Mexico lost 2–3. The duck was available on a free. Nobody called his name.
