So much to talk about today in the world of soccer.
Watched CHIVAS get crushed last night by MONTERREY in the Mexican league playoffs.
I became friends with Chivas head coach EFRAIN FLORES back in the 90’s when he was at Atlas as their youth director and RICARDO LAVOLPE was the head coach. Flores did a wonderful job setting up and structuring a youth system that developed players like PAVEL PARDO and RAFA MARQUEZ.
Watching Flores and LaVolpe go at it last night with their teams was interesting………JARED BORGETTI was as active as I have seen him in a long time and produced three goals after Chivas was gifted an early penalty. Huge result at Estadio Technologico for Rayados.
Chivas never looked comfortable and I forgot that OMAR BRAVO even played.

BARCELONA AND MLS IN AGREEMENT

Barcelona have signed a deal to partner with MLS so expect them to play games again this summer in the United States.
Hard to think Houston wouldn’t be a destination on that tour.

DYNAMO AT CHICAGO THIS SATURDAY
Don’t miss the Dynamo and Chicago Fire on Channel 55 this Saturday night .
The Fire and Blanco are 5-1-1 are for me currently the best team in MLS.
A win on the road at Toyota Park would be a positive step for the “ORANGE”.
