Toluca (Position 6rd N.7-I.6-H.4 Term.27-23)
Their course was good in the regular season, just at the end they suffered a mini blackout and fell from the 4th place. In the end they ended up at 6η position and play with an advantage in this phase. In the last game, they destroyed the poor Queretaro with 4-1, although they were not as focused. They took the lead with an accurate penalty kick (30`). Then they conceded a penalty which the opponent missed and closed the 1ο part with a 2 goal difference. In the replay with a new penalty they made it 3-0 (58`) and after 4-11 Rodriguez A. (M.13com) managed to receive two (2) yellow cards within ten (10`) minutes and was expelled. It will be the only significant absence. They want to take advantage of the home factor and definitely go to the next phase.
Juareth (Position 11th N.4-I.7-H.6 Term.17-18)
They succeeded and entered the playoffs literally in the last game. They were playing an indifferent Pumas and the motivation literally counted as they beat them 3-1 at home. And we say it like that, because they managed to score three (3) goals in one (1) match when in the previous sixteen (16) they had only scored fourteen (14)!!! A team that clearly relies on its good defensive function, will try to steal the result to advance to the next phase. Velazquez E. (A.9comp) left injured and is considered extremely doubtful. Rolon D. (E.4com) is definitely absent.
Toluca can score one(1) goal more than the tight Juarez, but they maintain a great tradition in there. I think this tradition is about to be broken. Ace.
