Mexico #1 Toluca Mexico #2 Tijuana Mexico #3 Leon http://espndeportes.espn.go.com/futbol/posiciones/_/liga/mex.1/liga-mx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Copa_Libertadores December 21th is the draw for groups and who Leon will play in the pre Elimination round.
Feeling real good about our Mexican teams chances in this tournament. South Americans will have to travel: All the way north to Tijuana and then play in a synthetic field Or face the high elevation in Toluca Or head to Leon with a stadium that will be sold out all the time
Yea, i agree All 3 teams are in great form, unlike bunch of other times when you get teams like san luis or some other team in crappy form Hopefully they can carry their current form to south america
1 Good thing about Leon, if they make it to the later rounds they could barrow some of the better Pachuca players.
Group 1 Barcelona Nacional de Uruguay Boca Juniors Toluca Group 5 Corinthians San Jose de Oruro Millonarios Club Tijuana Leon vs Deportes Iquique repechaje
Leon vs. Iquique should be pretty good. Grupo Pachuca takes International competition very seriously, so I am confident Leon will make the group.
True, but Mexico teams have to travel more frequently. Ever been on a 10 hour flight? Every other week is 10 hour flight I believe. It is very hard for Mexico teams.

Subzzz I'm exited for this tournament. Mexicans teams rape the tournament. The 3 Mexican teams make it to the Semifinals. Final: Tijuana-Leon Heard it here first.
Maybe it did, at least in the first 2 elimination rounds. Rnd of 16 Home W 3-0 Away L 2-0 Rnd of 8 Home W 3-0 Away L 2-0 Rnd of 4 They played at Azteca D1 - 1 Away they won 2-0 Final Lost both games by 1 goal.
Err... Is this 2010? They only played the final at Omnilife, since it hadn't been built till the match against Inter. Last year they got eliminated in the group stages with their fake turf and all.
What's with Marquez being on the bench? Was he subbed out because he committed an error that lead to conceding the goal? Just started watching...
Wasn't able to see how they conceded the goal, but it looks like he's out with a hamstring injury. From what I saw, Leon pretty much dominated, yet are losing 1 - 0. Deportes Iquique playing good defense, but they have to run out of gas sometime.
