“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

Metapan beat Pumas? That's certainly interesting.

whoever this Blanco guy is for Metapan deserves a look. you put two past Pumas (and the first one is a bit of skill involved), you're going to get noticed. (and Pumas apparently played mostly first team)

Interesting both Mexican teams lost but in Mexico it should be way different.

Oh wow. That is...that's something all right.
I can't say I hate it, but I really don't like it, either. Whatever it is, it's very that.
Did the USA , of all countries, just fix soccer? - C. Ronaldo, May 27th commenting on the FBI-led investigations into fraud and corruption throughout FIFA.
Seattle is a straight-out Mexican slash South American team. I watched a bit of the game, and they are now a full ball-control possession latin-style team with only a few token American players. They look very good, by the way.
A 2-1 result is probably not enough for Seattle to win in Mexico City. 2-0 and they would have had a chance.
The Metapam result is certainly one of the more shocking results in this tourney. Their supporters must be ecstatic.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
I don't think they go to Mexico City. Santos is based somewhere else. I know Pumas is, though.
I think a draw is possible.
Have to admit...this statement made me chuckle. LOVE IT!
Santos play in Torreon, its in northern Mexico not too far from the U.S. border.
^^ Where the Montreal Implosion occurred.
Monterrey spanked Morelia 4-1 tonight to win 7-2 on aggregate

I figure they're the favourite.
Suazo is a straight up beast.
I didn't watch the extended (20 min.) Seattle -- Santos Laguna highlights until now. Wow, two excellent teams! I must say, Seattle looks far better (at least in the highlights) than what I've seen from the Galaxy (or TFC) until now this year. Also surprised how much the ref let them play, again at least in the highlights, he let many things slide. Another CONCACAF ref might have whistled more, or even found an excuse to call a penalty kick in that game.
Why the hell isn't the return leg of Seattle-Santos in hi def? It's 2012 for cripes sake

2-0.. Ouch
This is good news I want us to play Santos in the Semi's... We have to show up Montreal.
they're improving. i think they're more likely to lose 3-1 than 2-0, if they lose, the attack has some quality to it
i blame seattle's fugly jerseys for their suck
