The Pink Ribbon Made Chivas Win

Chicharo celebratesThe 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.

Guadalajara
1 Luis Michel
19 Jonny Magallón
3 Aarón Galindo (YC 56′)
4 Héctor Reynoso
16 Édgar Solís
20 Édgar Mejía
17 Sergio Amaury Ponce
7 Gonzalo Pineda (YC 66′)
11 Ramón Morales (Omar Arellano 70′)

99 Omar Bravo
DT Raúl Arias

Monterrey
1 Jonathan Orozco
17 Eduardo Zavala (YC 54′)
5 Duilio Davino
21 Diego Ordaz (YC 45′) (José María Basanta 58′)
23 Felipe Baloy
20 Walter Ayovi
6 Gerardo Galindo (YC 23′) (Juan Carlos Medina 70′)
9 Sergio Santana (William Paredes 5′)
10 Oswaldo Martínez
26 Humberto Suazo (YC 44′)
11 Aldo de Nigris
DT Víctor Manuel Vucetich

I’m not sure what to say about the defense anymore. Even if all the flaws were pointed out, it wouldn’t really matter because the same things would happen again the following week. But, it wasn’t completely horrible. For the most part Chivas were on par with Monterrey.

And of course, Chicharo saved the day. Currently he is the highest scoring Mexican in the Apertura 2009 with 7 goals.

He popped up with one of his now well known headers to score the winning goal.

Next up is Santos on the 18th.
