Dominating performance by Toluca in Estadio Azul in front of a full stadium. Toluca took the 1st leg with a 2-0 win in Cruz Azul’s own stadium and will face the return leg on Sunday in Toluca.
Toluca held posession from the very start, with some good midfield work and attack on goal.
The first goal came [...]

By: Albert | Comments No Comments

“Abuelito” Lapuente had a great expression on his face at the end of the Tigres – Pumas game. It was a tough fought game, with little Puma’s offense. Leandro Agusto was really missed. Tigres had some good chances and pressed the Puma’s defense.
Surprise, 90th minute goals, put Tigres away 2-0. The look on Lapuente’s face [...]

CONCACAF Champions Cup – 1st leg for Cruz Azul

By: Albert | Comments 1 Comment

So this tournament is underway. Cruz Azul beat Hankook Verdes 6-0 in an empty Estadio Azul. The game was basically decided in the first 30 minutes.
Entry to the stadium was discounted 50% and kids were allowed for free. Still not very many people showed. It makes me wonder why Javier Orozco was pointing at his [...]

Week 3: Apertura Tournament

Cruz Azul vs Tecos, 2-0
Solid Cruz Azul takes out leader Tecos. Cruz Azul is once again starting to be very impressive. Jaime Lozano providing some excellent services for both goals. Does he deserve a NT callup?
San Luis vs Jaguares, 2-0
San Luis aint no joke. They play a very strong, ordered and agresssive game. Jaguares defense [...]

By: Albert | Comments No Comments

Ok, so Im late.
This past week of Mexican futbol was not bad.
First – Tecos vs Chivas 1-0. Chivas was robbed! Tecos went down a man, and still pulled out the win. Fatal error by the keeper resulted in the goal. Rodriguez thought the defense was going to play it back to him, but instead they [...]

Week 1: Apertura Tournament

By: Albert | Comments 1 Comment

So week one is in the bag. Games of interest were the Chivas vs Cruz Azul, Santos vs America.
In the Chivas vs Cruz Azul game, it was going to be interesting how new GK Sergio Rodriquez was going to handle the pressure of his new role as the replacement for injured Luis Michel. So the [...]
