[english and spanish reports are okay]

Game May 8 at Reliant Stadium, home of the Houston Texans and 3 home stadium away from DF of the Mexican National Team :D

Well... I have read about this for quite some time but it is official now. The local Univision Telemundo networks, Spanish Newspapers, and local spnaish radio shows have talked about it.

I finally heard it today on Channel 13 (ABC affiliate). Don Garber was in houston and gave a press confederace stating the game between Mexico and the US is official.

They went on to say that they want to use this game as a springboard to expand the MLS into Houston. Garber said Houston is a great sport city and has a booming hispanic community.


Makes me wonder....

its like he didnt even call out to the yank fans...
