The Houston Dynamo look to advance the Superliga semi-finals tonite at Robertson Stadium at 9pm vs Morelia.
The intrigue continues in the Superliga with MLS teams winning twice, drawing 3 times and losing once in 6 games.
Chivas proved the better team last night beating the LA Galaxy 2-1 at the LA Coliseum while FC Dallas drew 1-1 with defending Mexican League Champions Pachuca who were on the brink of elimination. In particular the FC Dallas and Pachuca game was entertaining with chances for both teams. Dallas seemingly was again victimized on an apparent goal from Clarence Goodson that was deemed offside. The replay seemed to indicate he was onside.
The Dynamo will likely make three changes tonite with central defender Ryan Cochrane returning to the starting lineup along with
striker Brian Ching. Zach Wells is rumored to get the start in goal in place of Pat Onstad.
Keep an eye on Morelia right back Diego Martinez who scored a long range goal vs. DC United. Martinez loves to get forward from his right back position and essentially turns into a midifielder.
Morelia will be without Luis Landin who was acquired from Pachuca and coach Jose Luis Trejo will rely on goalkeeper Moises Munoz who produced some stellar saves vs DC.
Will the Superliga turn into the Champions League of the Concacaf region? Your thoughts?

It should turn into the regional champions league. I really thought the Mexican teams would take a casual attitude toward the tournament, but their committment and professionalism has been a pleasant surprise. It would be terrific if this turned into something big.
Definitely – whoever came up with this concept (at SUM) deserves a raise. US English language rights need to be purchased.
A North American (minus Canada) title is very appealing, I think. If the very heated rivalry between Mexican and American international teams are even slightly carried over to the club teams then the tournament will prove extremly firey and entertaining. Sure these Mexican teams are in preseason but hey maybe this a little payback for the Dynamo\’s preseason loss to Pachuca in CONCACAF play.
