Is that definitive? I read yesterday that they would make that decision next Tuesday or so.

 

[Atlas]

Pachuca beat Monterrey in 2 leg game for the first spot in Libertadores we still have two more spots

 

[ManU2000]

Yeah, I know but they said that they still hadn't decided whether Pachuca would be Mexico 1 or Mexico 2. Hmm, doesn't really matter though. It'll be good to see a Mexican team go up against Boca no matter who it is.

 

[dannyeli]

Mineros well.. i guess we will have to settle for another two venezuelan teams

MINEROS !!!!!!

[Chacarita Juniors]

besides Pachuca, who are the other Mexican teams?....if Pachuca is #1 is group 8..."se la va a ver pelada"....good luck to all the "metzican" teams

...btw...great job posting this [soccer4evry1]



:mexican:

 

[ManU2000]

Apart from Pachuca, there's going to be an Interliga to decide the other two spots. The 8 teams in the Interliga are going to be Monterrey, Atlante, Tigres, Chivas, America, Santos, Jaguares, and Toluca.

 

[Atlas]

NO Atlas

we finish first last time to bad we couldn't win the final against Santos

but I think is for the best cuz we don't have the squad depth to go far

good luck to all Mexican teams

 

[ManU2000]

Oh yeah, if Monterrey wins the Apertura, Necaxa would take their spot. (:/) Pumas should be there too but no one is going to miss them.

 

[Luizdac]

Brazil 1 isn't Santo André? They beat Flamengo at Copa do Brasil finals, and then they will be there for sure.

 

[peruytu]

Santo Andre... amazing how this team won the Copa do Brasil.
..... and my favorite Brazilian team, Gremio, relegated to the second division... amazing.

 

[BRAZIL'S_#9]

Copa do Brasil is where the second division teams come out in Brasil. It's amazing how they do it every year.

Brazil 1 is the spot for the champions (hopefully Atlético Paranaense ).

Santo André will prob be Brazil 5.

My thoughts on Copa Liberadores:


Arent they going to have some kind of playoff for the spots in Mexico?

They did that last year, i rememebr cause they showed the games on FSW


On another note, I wish FSW would show libertadores games
Fox Sports en Espanyol shows them, why no a Fox channel in English

SO did they go back to the 8 groups of four? Last year they had 9 groups, and that was kinda strange

Im sure most ppl would disagree but do you think MLS Clubs should be playing in the Libertadores? I think they will at some point in the future, after all, Mexican clubs play in it, so why not US clubs if they ever begin to reach the level of talent as good as the other clubs playing in the competition?
