America playing well this last couple of games.

 

[v1lla21]

Yup, the team is definitely picking up.

It's pretty cool to see Cuba qualify for the CONCACAF U-23 Olympic qualifying tournament. They beat Jamaica. Delighted to see Arichel Hernandez score too, after he missed out on the Gold Cup due to a visa issue.

Very nice of Cuba. Their u23 is really good, they almost eliminated Mexico in the semis of the Central American games last year.


Pedro Caixinha, current Liga MX champion, has quit his job as Santos coach: https://t.co/drr1VLTkGI

 

[Mufc1427]

Sergio Bueno is gonna follow after how awful Cruz Azul played today.

Today in Conmelol news a bunch of irrelevant cups are now officialized. Many lolteams believe themselves to be international powerhouses.

What cups are relevant now? And what is the reasoning behind making them official and legitimate?

 

[Tecl0n]

a few country to country skirmishes before conmebol was even created. It seems Nacional (Uruguay) is now the club with the most international cups.

So now Nacional is going to have something more to brag about in Uruguay then. Don't they have the most titles of any club in Uruguay?

Tuca Ferreti is the interim Mexican coach for the next 4 games.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Tuca Ferreti is the interim Mexican coach for the next 4 games.

I feel like they should have kept Piojo until after the USA match. Let's hope for the best with Tuca.

 

[Regulus Tera]

We are gonna play bunkerball against the Americans and we gonna win Dos a Cero under Tuca's wisdom.

Seems like a step gap appointment before Bielsa takes over in a few months.

 

[v1lla21]

I think Tuca will do well.

 

[loki 16]

America is on a roll, they are playing extremely well.

Spoiler

Can I dream of the league title?

 

[Regulus Tera]

I don't see anybody playing as well as América. Maybe Puebla?

Yes, it will be ours!!
Lol at the people backpedaling on Ambriz.


I haven't seen any Puebla games so I'll have to check em out.

 

[loki 16]

The first Tuca Ferreti National list.

Spoiler

No Dos Santos brothers's or Ochoa supposedly because of what they said about Marinoli

 

[Regulus Tera]

It's not like they were gonna be very favourable under Ferreti's playstyle. I remember talk three years ago about how Tena was actually glad that Gio got injured for the Olympic gold medal game because he's not very disciplined when marking opponents.

 

[loki 16]

America continues on their winning ways. Benedetto and Martinez are in great form.

 

[v1lla21]

America looking good. A lot of bullshit passing though.

 

[Haiiro Husky]

Is it me, or is the league having higher scoring games this season? It seems like the games have a higher goals-per-game average than before. I'm happy we are seeing more goals and traditionally conservative teams are also getting into goal scoring action. Except Chivas, who still have less goals than games played :/

 

[CMojicaAce]

Chivas are actually winning. It's a Christmas miracle!

Yeah I feel like the games aren't the usual 1-2 games we were accustomed to viewing

Chivas are actually winning. It's a Christmas miracle!

Yeah and it's a great match too

 

[Haiiro Husky]

Sweet victory! They feel so good especially since they are so far apart. Title contenders now! Hahaha

 

[v1lla21]

... Lol 2-0

 

[Regulus Tera]

2-1. Though i don't know, I'm watching Uruguay vs Mexico in basketball.

 

[Mufc1427]

What a goal from Herrera.

 

[Regulus Tera]

I don't wanna say much since this was mostly a B team, but damn, if we play like that vs Argentina on Tuesday...

 

[loki 16]

Herrera's goal was fantastic.

 

[v1lla21]

I feel like Argentina will have a field day like they did against Bolivia. Mexico's defense is still lacking. Saw a bit of The Brazil vs Costa Rica match and it was rather tame.

I don't think Mexico is gonna play as bad as Bolivia did. Mexico is gonna lose though.

 

[v1lla21]

Was that actually a penalty? I missed the replays. The 10 minutes I've actually seen have been good

 

[CMojicaAce]

Yea, looked like the defender missed the ball.

 

[v1lla21]

Dope. This game is good. Mexico misses a lot of passes though.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Great save by Munoz.

This field is trash.

 

[Mufc1427]

chicharito missed two clear chances in the first half.

 

[Cess007]

chicharito missed two clear chances in the first half.

The last one was incredible. Chicharito, i love you, but come on man, at least make the ball go towards the goal, not over it

 

[Mufc1427]

tuca take out chicharito.

 

[CMojicaAce]

All these missed chances are going to come back to haunt us

 

[v1lla21]

Moises is on point! Chicha has missed two clear chances.

GOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mufc1427]

fuck yeah!

 

[Cess007]

I love you Herrera <3!!

 

[CMojicaAce]

Please no collapse these last 15 minutes.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Lol

 

[v1lla21]

Well, there it is. GG Mexico.

Lol.

 

[Cess007]

You gotta be kidding me...

 

[CMojicaAce]

Complete collapse!

 

[Mufc1427]

Those substitutions didn't do Mexico any good.

 

[v1lla21]

Besides the collapse, Mexico played well. Can't wait till we have tecatito, and the Dos Santos brothers.

As far as Argentina. It only took them around8 minutes to dismantle Mexico's defense. Deadly as fuck. If Aguero would've started, the final score would've been different.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Overall I liked what I saw. Just need to improve that finishing really.
