impaled, varyous styles, rdl, thrash boy, futbol de primera

HAIL THE KING!

ps. FRACASO! Hugo should go on tv and apologize to everyone for that pathetic display. I cannot remember not 1 clear chance Pumas had all game! I can't believe he had his team let toluca put them against the ropes for most of the first half and then guess what happens (toluca scores)

you can't allow a team like toluca to just have the ball and let them attack you like that, they are too dangerous.

 

it makes Pumas a fracaso that their coach talked and talked and talked how this is the year, how he can't survive without winning, how he was mentalizing the players for nothing but the title AND THEN we have Pumas at their own stadium get dominated by Toluca and pumas not creating a clear chance all game.

 

All Hail King Styles

GAME ANALYSIS

Toluca (4-2) Pumas : Toluca

Toluca did not kill UNAM in counters their two goals in the last game were on set plays.


Tigres (2-2) Cruz Azul

This match can go either way.. Both squads have a core group of talented players. Tigres will place its hopes on walter Gaytan while Cruz Azul has Chelito Delgado.. If Marcelo "Chelo" Delgado recovers he be the deciding factor and can carry the team all the way to the final. However Pumpido has proven to be a great coach so it wouldnt surprise me if he had something up his sleave..

In these anylisis we can see my superior footy Knowledge. I said this match could go either way and it did with both teams getting an away win. You said Cruz Azul didnt have a chance at el Volcan and they dominated the match. Tigres only advanced because of their better season standings, global it was a 2-2 draw..

Atlante (5-3) Santos

Pony ruiz to Borgetti and forget about it.. Santos will take this one as they seem to have a better momentum as of late.. Atlante will depend on Luis Gabriel Rey unless Chamagol fully recovers and the south american strike force can play a more important role..

I didnt get this one as i picked Santos but i did have Chamagol as playing an Important role and he came back to score a hat trick in the first game.

The only credit i give you was if Atlante would win if they could take the lead in Torreo which they did but that was in the second game and this match up was pretty much won in the first game. Also Herrera did a good tactical job as Atlante played with 10 men in the last match up.. Conclusion you got lucky and noted obvious facts..


Necaxa (3-4) Pachuca

from watching the first encounter of the regular season at aguascalientes the obvious choice is Pachuca. It was a snoring bore draw and unless Necaxa gets out of its defensive style imposed by Arias and truly attack a lot and often I don't think they will win at home. This makes it worse knowing they will play a team that can frustrate them with a taste of their own medicine with defensive tactics.

I called it an even match and both teams ended up winning a game. Provided Pachuca scored one more goal than Necaxa. Once again i bested you. Bow down to my superior Knowledge..

 

Various Styles can't you admit that I beat you? Not only did I get all my predictions right but you did not even give a prediction for cruz azul/tigres! so this basically gave me the win and here is why

atlante vs santos: I beat you and you rightfully admitted it

pumas vs toluca

1) he was not the deciding factor
2) When I said that I didn't trust Hugo my prediction came true in the game at pumas. Not 1 clear scoring chance all game, toluca dominated them in the first half and pumas couldnt even get the ball. Tuca is the man with the experience and would end up beating Hugo which is what I meant with my comments about Hugo.

necaxa vs pachuca

1)tell me who perfectly described what happened on the field? I did. They did not get out of their defensive style (like i said) necaxa did not win at home (like I said) and necaxa got a taste of their own medicine in the counter attacks after the damage had been done to them.

1) you gave no prediction (automatic loss)
2) I said cruz azul proved hard to beat for Tigres and my prediction proved correct. If it wasnt for that Awful Galindo mistake.

you gave did not even give a prediction!!! if you are gonna come here and challenge THE REAL KING you should at least say who you think will win or else that is 1 prediction in the loss column when you face THE REAL KING! remember this next time

You can still have another shot at THE REAL KING OF THE MEXICAN FORUM for the prelibertadores.

 

niñasss, niñassssss calmense por favorrrrrr






not to piss on your parade bud... but everybody was off with thier analysis.. their predictions might have been right, but the analysis way off...

VS was right, Toluca did not dominate. Although a goal scored off a set piece can get you the 3 points, they did not dominate.. toluca's best chance came after the Lozano's red card... but they won.. and good for them...

for those of yous that know my post, i have always been against teams iparticipating in the liguilla off a technicality or defualt.. i like the best 8 to participate.. but... i do disagree with the current format that the team with a better standing gets preference if the global is tied. The playoffs is a different season.. and the only thing that the regular season should do is just allocate the teams as to see who they face off against.. because quite honestly, Cruz Azul did deserve to advance. Tigres was very lucky... I wanted them to advance, but.. i dont think they deserved it.. Same with Pachuca..

i think the only team that really deserved to go to the semis was Atlante.. they played a hell of a game in Neza and played a smart game in Torreon.

 

I'd really like to see these games but why do they schedule them in the middle of weekdays? Seems like they'd get a better TV/live audience at night.

 

yeah even though Toluca aren't as good when playing out of the country

 

Anyone know if Gaytan will play in the final?

 

I want Atlante to beat Pachuca so that Pumas can play in the Interliga.

do you think Atlante can do it?
