That’s it.
The season is over. Chivas had the opportunity to move on but wasted opportunities, not just today but the whole season, and that’s why no more games will be played.
Francisco Ramirez didn’t work out. Raul Arias didn’t work out. Omar Bravo didn’t work out.
That’s why Chivas isn’t in the Liguilla and America is. Read the rest of this entry »

They sure did a lot of staring…into the back of their own nets.
Who missed the first goal? I did.
I was barely settling down when the second was scored.
Finally, a Chivas team that plays like what a Chivas team is supposed to play like. Read the rest of this entry »

Jose Luis Real is rumored to be the interim manager for the last games.

Chivas lost. Again. Is anyone surprised? Even the slightest bit?
Yeah, me either.
I’m not even sure what happened here. Everything was going along well(as much as that word can mean for Chivas at the moment) and then BAM! 1-1, 2-1, 3-1.
There were some wacky moments but they don’t really justify what went on. Read the rest of this entry »

Well…that didn’t go too well.
Chivas lost. Yes, lost. And against America which makes it even worse.
However, in this mediocre league that takes place in Mexico there is some good news.
Good news when Chivas lost against America, the most hated rival? How can that be? Read the rest of this entry »

Rest in peace, Doctor Ricardo Herrera.
In the early hours of the morning the Chivas U-17 bus was struck by a cargo truck. Dr. Ricardo Herrera died at the scene due to a traumatic brain injury.
Two players were injured, as well as the physical trainer and the manager.
Oscar Torres and Cesar Vasquez received facial injuries. Corazein Pardo was injured as well. As of now, it seems like manager Manuel Martinez received the most serious injuries, suffering from a lower brain stem injury. He has gone through surgery, and according to Jorge Vergara is expected to be fine. Those four in the most critical condition are reported to be stable now at the hospital.
The driver disappeared from the scene, and his whereabouts are unknown.
The team was coming back from a 2-3 win at Torreon, and the U-20 bus was following close by and witnessed the accident as well.
Games are subject to change for the lower division teams, although that decision will be made later when the conditions of the players are better accounted for.
As for now, rest in peace Ricardo Herrera.

The game was played on Monday because of local elections in Torreon. That didn’t really matter. Chivas lost. Would Chivas have lost if the game had been on Sunday? Nah, probably not.
Santos have been on a climb, so they most likely would have continued had it taken place over the weekend.

That’s three games without a loss. THREE. More actually, if you want to throw in the midweek US tour friendlies. But those are the stats in the Liga. Where it really matters. Sure, they’ve been surrounded by great luck in Chivas’ favor. I can’t really complain.
But, I can complain about how the team’s been playing.

The Raul Arias stereotype has set in, hasn’t it?
Chivas did not do well defensively, and were caught several times as they tried to come up with opportunities.
The goats came up against one of the best teams so far in the Apertura 2009, but managed to scrape a win. At home.
