I was luckily able to attend the first leg in which Rayados won 1-0. You can recognize me as the sole schmuck wearing the visiting team jersey in the photos below.
The game was not as insanely dramatic as the semifinal, which is probably best for our health. The MKX® official correspondent Moi covered the match for us. He posted a sweet, sweet gallery on his blog. I strongly suggest you head over to check the photos out. I also strongly suggest you start saving for Brazil 2014.
Last night, Club de Fútbol Monterrey (previously featured) won the Interliga 2010 by defeating América 3-1 in penalty kicks. This is the second title they’ve won recently and it gets them into this year’s edition of the Copa Libertadores, the continent’s most important club competition and the oldest soccer tournament in the world. This will be the second time “Los Rayados” play in this tournament, and the first time ever that the current Mexican champion represents Mexico in this Cup.
2010 is shaping up to be quite a soccer year for me…
