    Exactly. Nothing in the board rules requires all users to be cheerleaders. If there were, this board would be due for a major housecleaning.

    GOOGLE TRANSLATE FROM SANTOS LAGUNA SITE:



    After recreational activities carried out this morning in the premises of the Holy Land Model, Panama's Felipe Baloy said:

    We are thinking about winning, Toronto is not an easy opponent, Santos is showing that it is for great things, whether playing at home or visitor. We have the opportunity to play the return match in Torreon and we will do things the right way with our audience will try to advance to the Final

    Is there confidence to overcome this tie?

    The total trust is the team we have, by group, by the performance we've had. Tomorrow we will try to show, to make a great game and moving on to the Final, we play it and win it.

    Avoid concieding the first goal?

    Certainly, keeping the back are zero in the final, the goalless draw gives us the pass, the idea is to be solid behind. Yet the team wants to win, our important players can score at any time.

    [Is it] Essential to keep a cool head and not fall into provocations?

    That will be important, ending eleven, not to make any devolution or we expel any player. We must dedicate ourselves to play, to do our thing, to think about winning the game.

    For his part, Rodolfo Salinas lagoon stressed the importance of play in? Alien House of Pain?:

    We have to build that we are at home with our fans in our stadium. We will facilitate the whole game. There [BMO field] [we] could not have as much possession as the court was too small, here will be a nice football game to generate as we have been doing in the tournament and the Champions League?

    What will be the key to getting the ticket to the Final?

    Possession of the ball, playing the ball is our strength, they are much more complicated when an opponent starts playing them the ball.

    Focused on advancing to the final analysis?

    Yes, this team can play mini-leagues, in all tournaments try to reach the final and be champions in both tournaments we play this team aspires to much.

    The match between Santos Laguna and Toronto FC, corresponding to the Semifinal Round of the Champions League CONCACAF will be played on Wednesday April 4 at about 19:00 at Estadio Corona.

    Just imagine if the feeling in our bellies as we anticipate kick off tonight was something that came along much more regularly.

    Sort of like gas.

    ATTACK and PRESS like the HAMMERS OF HELL and show them all their BS chatter means BULLSHIT to us...

    They score early, changes nothing to what we need to do...

    DON'T BACK DOWN, DON'T BE AFFRAID, DON'T BE PASSIVE - SHOVE THIS MATCH RIGHT DOWN THEIR THROATS...!!!

    have not been this excited for a game probably since the first time i saw Porto face benfica. This is going to be a good game (hopefully) and I do believe anything is possible in this game. I would love to see Toronto FC come in and win, and already its shown us you do not always need the big name players or budget to get a quality team and get this far in a tournament.

    COME ON YOUR REDS!!!!!!!. you can do this. as long as they put forth 100% of their efforts im happy.

    Despite the long odds and such, it's quite stunning to really realize the magnitude of our match tonight. CCL might be still in it's infancy, but it's still extremely massive to think of where we are and what we can accomplish tonight.

    Just picture what BMO would be like for the (assuming) 1st leg of the CCL final. I want that soooooo bad.

    I thought we would be away for the 1st leg of the finals if we make it? I could have sworn i read an article on TFC's website stating that if we won we would be facing either pumas or Monterrey away first. I could be wrong but i thought i read that.

    Have they released the date(s) the final will be played on?
    Also I much prefer a one-legged tie for a final at a pre-determined stadium like the UEFA Champion's League, but I guess it'd be difficult as some fans over here are a little less likely to travel to a neutral stadium for the game.
