It has been a nightmare season for the Los Angeles Galaxy but thanks to some help from a certain former English National Team captain, the Galaxy have reached the finals of Superliga where they will face Pachuca. David Beckham’s first half free kick and second half thru ball to Landon Donovan accounted for the two […]

Another Classic Semifinal between Pachuca and Houston
August 15th, 2007 · Comments · Superliga
Much like the CONCACAF Champions Cup semifinals where Houston and Pachuca played quite possibly the best game of club football not played on the European continent this year, the Dynamo were once again eliminated by Pachuca in epic fashion. This match was every bit as exciting as the Champions Cup match, although it lacked the […]

Improving Superliga
August 2nd, 2007 · Comments · Superliga
The group stage of the inaugural Superliga Tournament is in the books, and while the event has been about as exciting as could possibly be expected many improvements to the structure of the event are necessary if Superliga is to reach its potential in the future.

DC, Houston Advance
August 2nd, 2007 · Comments · Superliga
In perhaps the least entertaining match of the Superliga, Houston defeated DC United to win Group B and advance to the semifinals. The second match between Moriela and Club America on the other hand was very entertaining. The papers back in Mexico City have been exceedingly critical of America’s poor performance in this tournament. Moriela […]

Los Angeles without David Beckham won Group A after a 6-5 win at Pizza Hut Park versus FC Dallas. The game was marked by […]

The inaugural Superliga Tournament once again gave us some great action Saturday Night as FC Dallas was unfortunate to draw with Pachuca. Clarence Goodson appeared to give the Hoops a one to nill lead right before halftime but the goal was incorrectly judged offsides by the official. After Carlos Ruiz did score a goal to […]

Superliga Wrap: Night Two
July 26th, 2007 · Comments · Superliga
Well my predictions about this competition at least to this point look laughable. Pachuca my pick to win the Superliga controlled the match versus L.A. Galaxy but some fantastic individual play by Landon Donovan and Cobi Jones cost them the game. Then last night, DC United the team I picked to face Pachuca in the […]

Superliga Preview
July 24th, 2007 · Comments · Superliga
One of the most significant events in the history of Major League Soccer takes place Tuesday with the inaugural match of the Superliga, an event that very well could replace the ill-timed and poorly conducted CONCACAF Champions Cup as the club championship of the North America region.
Superliga is viewed by some as a blatant money […]
