    Looks like Corona and Castillo starting with Garza on the bench.

    The Tijuana box was besieged but they finally cleared it and began a counter attack. Corona got the ball in the center, got free with a nice turn then ran into space and took a (possibly ill-advised) long shot that went over.

    The commentating was great: "corona coroNA CORONA CORONA COrona corona"

    Castllo with a left-footed blast that's only slightly wide

    Castillo with a nice run into the box, but his final pass is easily gathered up by the keeper.

    Castillo and Corona both have had great scoring chances.

    By the way, Corona was subbed out in the 59th minute. It's still 0-0.

    Castillo with a shot saved.

    No Garza today as Tijuana made all 3 subs.

    Still 0-0, 3 minutes added

    Ended 0-0. Not a bad result for Tijuana but it sounds like they had a few good chances.

    Castillo has looked good the few times I have seen him this season.

    I know BS will throw a fit if he gets called up to Italy but I would not be surprised.

    Now that I've actually seen him play he seems pretty good. Definitely good offensively and he hasn't made any serious blunders on defense.

    Probably the byproduct of more playing time.

    wow what a dog of a game. haven't watched an Azteca America broadcast in a while, i guess they're about the worst i've ever seen. commercials all thru the game. terrible.
    Tijuana was decent, but even tho they bossed the game they never really looked like scoring. even when the thick bald dude had a perfect chance in stoppage time. Castillo still isn't national team quality, i keep hoping he's getting better but no...
    Corona maybe in a couple years? interested to see him for the Olympic team.
    and then i switched over to Real Madrid v. Levante, what a difference...
