Final Interliga 2010
What a night of Football. More so for the 1st game, but the 2nd wasn’t all that bad.
Tecos vs Puebla – Of these 2 teams, I think Puebla played their previous games better. Tecos almost got ripped by America in their last game, but made an impressive come back. Today would be the same, but better. Puebla impressed in the first half and scored 2 goals to take the lead. They had plenty of other opportunities that were missed. Tecos came back, with vengance all props to Pony Ruiz. This is a gray haired, old, short guy, who runs and plays like a youngster. Very impressive for many years in the Mexican League. He basically took Tecos on his shoulders for the come back win. Pony scored the 1st 2 goals, and even one of them off a header. This guy is clutch. The game winner came off a pass that Ruiz started and cut down the middle by Ruben Sambueza. Tecos to Libertadores with 3-2 win.
Monterrey vs America – This match was a conservative one, both teams being careful and hoping not to give up the goal. America had better chances, once with Cabañas hitting the post, just missing a goal. Memo Ochoa made one save coming out of the box to ruin Monterrey’s chance. So penalties had to be turned to. Here is where America failed miserably, missing 3 out of 4. Cabañas, Mosquera and Pardo. Monterrey is champ and deservedly so. How exciting to win the Apertura and now Interliga. I just hope they can make a good showing. Maldonado should be a helpful addition.
