    Jose Montes de Oca, 19, Makes Pro Debut for Leon


    The 19-year-old forward from Santa Ana, Calif., got his first taste of professional soccer Friday night, and it just so happened that Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho was on the pitch when it all went down.

    JOSE "CHILA" MONTES DE OCA, a 19-year-old from Santa Ana, Calif., made his first-team debut Friday for Liga MX defending champions Leon. The forward came on in the 79th minute to help his team hang on to a 2-1 lead over Queretaro and its high-profile import, Ronaldinho.


    Prior to Friday, Montes de Oca had been playing for Leon's under-20 team, scoring two goals in nine contests.

    Wearing #292, Montes de Oca started for Leon's U20s in their opener yesterday and scored the game's only goal.

    The FMF database suggests Diego was born in Leon. Makes it much tougher to get to US citizenship (not impossible, though).
