I'm thrilled they're at this point. I won't be disappointed with any outcome. I would OBVIOUSLY love to advance. I would selfishly love to see a win at BMO. But losing 8-nil would not take away from this great experience we've had this (CCL) season.
The rainout against Vancouver, and then the come-from-behind win in the NCC final.
The rainout against Dallas, only to be dashed the next day.
Taking a lead on Pumas at home.
Needing a win in Dallas, and earning it.
Rogers Centre majesty.
Thriller in LA.
Having said all that... anyone can beat anyone on any given day. But remember, there's a pretty big difference between how Cruz Azul and Pumas may have approached a GROUP STAGE game at BMO, and how Santos are sure to approach a SEMIFINAL game. They will not be sending a team of subs to Toronto. There's no strategy for group stage points here. It's all out win. And we'll see their best, be assured of that.
I'm thrilled to have the chance to watch in person on the 28th!
COME. ON. YOU. REDS!
