2014/15 CCL: Group Stage

Santos Laguna has opened some cans of whoop ass on MLS teams for sure.

 

So what. It's not Rich Coast's fault they maintained a stable league while you guys couldn't.

 

Even if you believe the draw was fixed, Real Salt Lake beat Saprissa in the Semifinals that year, making MLS look better than the Costa Rican league.

 

Yes, and the same one were they topped the table against Cruz Azul, knocked out 2 other MLS teams (Toronto and Columbus), and beat Saprissa in the semi's to just barely lose in the final (3 - 2 on aggregate).

 

Nope... it's a good achievement, but it does not make Saprissa some juggernaut of a team compared to MLS teams... and this is what was implied in the post.

 

yes it does.

 

Correct, Uruguay has 2 world Cups (4 if you ask their fans), so that makes them a juggernaut over all Concacaf men’s teams.

 

lulz,

At least Saprissa didn´t lift their last trophy in the black and white

 

If you say so.

 

I´m sure the Galaxy is better

lulz

 

It does not make a difference, right?

 

Historically no

 

Maybe not... but Saprrisa is not Real Madrid compared to the Galaxy. Lets take a look at Saprissa record against MLS teams.
