Concachampions: Santos y Atlante pierden

Daniel Gúzman hoy si alineó a sus estrellas y ni así pudo ganar al Tauro de Panamá, que le ganaron en su casa al Santos por dos goles a cero. Y con éste marcador peligran su estancia en la Concachampions. Las anotaciones del equipo panameño fueron obra de Brunett Hay al minuto 43 y de Rolando [. Click to continue reading...

Back to the Champions League...

3
Cruz Azul hosts Saprissa in what is probably the best game of this round tonight. The other Group A game is tomorrow night as DC travels to Honduras to face Marathon. I hope their defense learns how to stop a counterattack between now and then, otherwise the Green Monster is going to kill them...

Houston makes their debut in the group stage, traveling to Panama to face San Francisco. Click to continue reading...

Puerto Rico UP, DC United DOWN, Pumas QUE?

2
Quick responses to the CONCACAF Champions League results from last night...
  • Puerto Rico just keeps on keeping on, doing what Chivas USA couldn't do with a 2-1 home win over Tauro of Panama. WHO WILL STOP THE ISLANDERS??? We'll see when they play Atlante...
  • I knew DC was in trouble when I saw the starting lineup.

MLS drops out of CONCACAF Champions League early

5

Two embarassing results for Majore League Soccer in the CONCACAF Champions League happened yesterday.  Last years MLS Cup runners up and the Western Conference champions both dropped out of the regional tournament yesterday.  

The New England Revolution lost 0-4 at home to Joe Public of Trinidad and Tobago.

Ugly Night For MLS

1
Two MLS clubs entered the CONCACAF Champions League preliminary rounds expecting to advance to the group stages. But after a home and away series both New England and Chivas USA were outed worse than anyone could have imagined. New England lost on aggregate to Trinidad side Joe Public 6-1. OUCH. Chivas lost on aggregate to Panamanian side [. Click to continue reading...

CONCACAF Champions League 2008-09: The Preliminary Round

3
Below are the collated results for the Preliminary Round of the 2008-09 CONCACAF Champions League. Ties are a two-match, home-and-away series, higher aggregate score wins, and away goals count. If aggregate and away goals are level, a 30-minute extra time period is played with penalties if necessary. Click to continue reading...

Final Result: Tauro FC at Chivas USA

2

The end of Chivas USA's participation in the inaugural CONCACAF Champions League effectively came in the 62nd minute when Luis Moreno equalized to tie this game 1-1.

But that put the score 3-1 on aggregate meaning Chivas USA needed not two goals (because away goals count double in the event of a tie), but three more goals within a half hour to move on.

MLS teams wouldn't lose meaningful series against teams from Panama and Trinidad and Tobago, would they?

We'll find out tonight. Both MLS teams trail after the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League preliminary round.

Here's the situation:

New England Revolution vs. Joe Public FC (T&T) in Foxboro, Mass.

Thoughts on Tauro FC

1
Chivas USA will host a critical match against Tauro FC tonight. Chivas USA needs to win by two goals in order to have any hopes of advancing to the CONCACAF Champions League.

Here is audio of my post-game chat with Jonathan Bornstein about the game.

Acutally, it's a bit more complicated than just winning by two. Click to continue reading...

Taking nine for the team

I'm trying to crank out my PE column tonight so I don't have to worry about it on Monday morning, which is a good thing since I'm going to be out and about most of the day. I'm writing a column on the horrendous scheduling by Major League Soccer and how they're playing right through World Cup qualifying. Click to continue reading...

MLS teams fail at CONCACAF champions league

4
New England, the best team supposedly in MLS, got beat by a team called Joe Public F.C. (no joke!), a side from Trinidad and Tobago.

Hopefully they were playing reserves.

Chivas USA didn't do much better, losing 2-0 to Tauro F.C., the Panamanian champs. Puerto Rico got a point, but I'm not sure how much credit the U. Click to continue reading...

MLS Clubs Drop Opening CCL Games

1
Not a good night for Major League Soccer on the international scene. Two games on foreign soil and two very ugly losses. Chivas loses in Panama to Tauro 2-0. New England loses in Trindad to Jack Warner's Joe Public 2-1. MLS clubs lost games to very small clubs. Not the big boys of CONCACAF like Pachuca or Olimpia, [. Click to continue reading...

Things To Learn From CCL Matchday Uno

1
For all practical purposes the first matchday of the CONCACAF Champions League is over (Cruz Azul hasn't finished their game yet), but there are several things we can learn.

1. Never bet on a Belizian (I have no idea of that's right) team, especially if they play Cruz Azul. The game is not over yet, but Cruz Azul should advance from this night with a considerable aggregate lead, they currently lead 5-0. Click to continue reading...

Champions League Preview

1
The time has come for North America's answer to their European counterpart. The Champions League begins tonight. In this space I will rank and give a brief preview of the eight preliminary matchups. Several of the teams come from leagues that have played internationally very little over the past few years, so those teams will be unranked. Click to continue reading...
