Last night, I was watching “Futbol Picante” on ESPN Deportes and the panel was discussing the issue of medical staff availability at the different stadiums through Mexico. It felt like they read my mind, because since Antonio Puerta’s passing, I’ve been wondering, is there enough medical staff and/or a way to deal a situation […]

By: mirna | Comments 2 Comments

After an emotional and intense game, overtime, penalty kicks and more penalty kicks, Pachuca became the first champion of the SuperLiga. With Abel Xavier missing his penalty kick in a sudden death situation, the Tuzos were able to claim victory and a nice $1 million dollar prize.
