America goes down, Romano steps aside.

By: Albert | Comments No Comments

For real this time. After a disgraceful Mexican League stint as Head Coach, all his hopes hung on the Copa Libertadores. Now America loses 4-2 to Flamengo in Azteca, without an impressive attendance. It just keeps getting worse and the only thing that can fix it is a total cleaning of players, directives and coaching.
Romano […]

By: Albert | Comments No Comments

I guess this is some sort of player joking around as German Villa stretches Salvador Cabañas during a practice session.

Superclasico should have been 5-0, 5-1

By: Albert | Comments 4 Comments

What else would you expect form Jorge Vergara, Chivas owner. This guy is always looking for an opportunity to talk trash. Latest quote is: “We helped Romano break records, he has 20 games without a win. He also said it should have been 5-0 or 5-1.
This may be true, but wow, not very nice. Romano […]
