12/13 CCL: Quarterfinals [R]

Is this the first time a Mexican club has failed to advance to the Quarterfinals?

Since this CCL format started it is

Which team's cheerleaders/porristas are better? Dynamo Girls or Santos Guerreritas?

fyp

What in the world is that thing on the far right? Some perverse cheerleader mascot?

Eh, I could see Seattle over UANL maybe, but Santos and Monterrey for sure.

I got Santos.

Sucks Chivas are out. We are not very good this year, but since the QF are not till after the January
window maybe we could have strengthened the squad...Oh well.

Seattle has no chance, zero, zip, nada!

Fredy Montero better just use the opportunity to get Salcido´s John Hancock!!

That's one of the players the FMF is sponsoring in the new US women's league.

...a bad re-incarnation of Diego Maradona?

...an escapee from Sabado Gigante or Republica Deportiva?

...and not only that, but it looks like there's a disembodied head after cheerleader #3.

The club world cup got me pumped for this!

With Santos getting a new coach from Portugal and not knowing how serious Tuca will take it.........Monterrey look to be the big favorites once again!

3 in a row?


Concacaf will always finish top 3 in Club World Cups from here on out!!

I thought it was late Feb.........thanks ceez

With the Galaxy without Beckham and maybe without Donovan, I think Herediano qualifies to the semis! And of course the 3 mexican teams are gonna lay the smack down!

Here are probabilities of winning the tournament based on the bwin odds:

Monterrey: 24.8%
Santos Laguna: 24.8%
Tigres UANL: 19.5%
Los Angeles: 8.5%
Seattle: 8.5%
Houston: 7.6%
Herediano: 4.5%
Xelaju: 1.7%

Mexico: 69.1%
USA: 24.6%
Costa Rica: 4.5%
Guatemala: 1.7%

Do you know if Fox Soccer is going to carry all of these?

The games with MLS teams yes, Univision Deportes should carry all the other games (if it is an MLS team vs a non MLS team both stations will carry it).

Sweet, I'm glad I'm not the only one that cares about this tourney.

UANL wants this tittle:

March 6th UANL trashes Sounders "en el Uni", the game in Seattle will be meaningless.

...Somos Incomparables.

Te veo en la final...
lol

a clasico regio in the final would be pretty sweet!, but can`t count out Santos after all they do have the king of England on their squad!

long live the King!

I completely agree with you, Santos is retaking its best form compared to last semester where they looked awful. On the other hand, I think Monterrey will never retake the level they showed two years ago, not with their current players, they are getting old, slower, although they are talented and experienced. Tigres is looking good, most of them been playing together for 2 years or more, now with the return of Danilinho and the incorporation of Villa, Lobos and Damian look amazing. Added to the National team level defensive and middle field players, this team as a "team" and in individuality its in my point of view, one of the top candidates to win it all this year.

yeah Monterrey is crap right now......just lost to chivas

I watched the game and it could had gone either way, and Chivas is playing much better than last semester. I still think Monterrey won't have any problem in reaching the Concacrap final.
