First, Mexico is playing England for a chance to reach the quarterfinals for the first time in 40 years, at the Azteca where they haven’t lost a match there in 13 years. Mexico has a very real chance of an upset with strong home field advantage, which would be probably be the greatest Mexico football game to date. Mexico has had an unprecedented run in this World Cup so far while England is a solid legacy team. This game could very well go down as one of the best World Cup games in a long time.

On the other hand USA, also having an unprecedented run at this World Cup is playing a solid Belgium team, who knocked them out in round 16 at the 2014 WC, in Lumen Field home of the loudest crowd roar at an outdoor sports stadium, in order to damage to the quarterfinals for the second time since 2002. The “12th man” will give the USMNT a massive home field advantage. Odds even have the US as slight favorites in this, which a win here would certainly be the greatest USMNT game to date.

These games are set to break records and be some of the greatest in both of these team’s histories. Seriously a blessed moment for CONCACAF and USA/Mexico soccer

This is to help "the surroundings," perhaps?

The confusion comes from Pew Research which said, “In order to keep the Millennial generation analytically meaningful, and to begin looking at what might be unique about the next cohort, Pew Research Center decided a year ago to use 1996 as the last birth year for Millennials for our future work. Generations are often considered by their span, but again there is no agreed upon formula for how long that span should be. At 16 years (1981 to 1996), our working definition of Millennials is equivalent in age span to their preceding generation, Generation X (born between 1965 and 1980)”

However they still recognize baby boomers as 19 years long. There is no precedent that Gen Z therefore should also be 16 years in length.

They had been studying Millennials for over a decade, but by 2018 the oldest Millennials were approaching 40 while a new cohort of young people was entering adulthood. If they kept expanding the Millennial generation indefinitely, the label would become too broad to be useful for analyzing social trends. They needed to “close” the Millennial cohort so they could begin studying the next emerging generation as its own group.

The 1997 start seems to be definitive. Where Gen Z ends only time will tell. Where do you think Gen Z ends?

In under 15 years society went from first time mainstream access to the internet in the late ‘90s to ubiquitous mobile internet in the early 2010s. And right in the middle of this period you see the switch from Web 1.0 dial-up internet to Web 2.0 high speed internet around the mid 00s. Since the early ‘10s technology has seemingly plateaued
