Osorio apologizes for outburst at New Zealand assistant

The Mexico coach says he lost his head during an incident in the first half of his team's 2-1 victory in the Confederations Cup

Mexico coach Juan Carlos Osorio said he lost control during Wednesday's Confederations Cup match against New Zealand, and said he is sorry his shouts of anger at the All Whites' bench were heard on the television broadcast.

El Tri defender Carlos Salcedo went down in his own penalty area in the 27th minute with what eventually would be diagnosed as a dislocated shoulder, but play continued with neither the referee blowing the play dead nor New Zealand stopping their attack.
