Mexican Fútbol! :D

Hi everybody, as you can know and of course as you can see in my principal picture i really love soccer, actually Mexico is one of the most populations of soccer fans around the world, just for giving an example in the last world cup the black shirt of the Mexican team was the second most sold (only behind the Spain’s one).

Ok, now I want to update all of you about the Mexican soccer league… Right now there are 18 teams from different parts of the country; all teams have to play against each team making a total of 9 matches per week and it lasts around 17 byes.

PTS	TEAM                              PTS
1	Cruz Azul	35
2	Monterrey	32
3	Santos	26
4	San Luis	25
5	América	24
6	Tigres	23
7	Jaguares	21
8	Toluca	21
9	Pachuca	19
10	Pumas	19
11	Chivas	18
12	Gallos Blancos	18
13	Morelia	17
14	Necaxa	16
15	Puebla	15
16	Atlante	15
17	Atlas	12
18	Estudiantes	12

When it finishes the first 8 teams of the ranking classify to the quarters of final, then the winners go to the semi-final and to end the last two teams sort to the grand finale. So as we can see in the table of above CRUZ AZUL is the actual leader, if the tournament culminates right now, the playoffs would be like this: 

CRUZ AZUL (1^st) vs Toluca (8^th)

Monterrey (2^nd) vs Jaguares (7^th)

Santos (3th) vs Tigres (6^th)

América (4^th) vs San Luis (5^th)

Sadly, the grand finale will be on 12^th December and I will return to Mexico on 18^th, so I can not watch it in Mexico.

If my favourite team keeps playing as well as it is doing it now, I am almost sure that my team will be the next championJ, but I don’t want to say anything because when I wish something too much, it never happens, so just let’s have hope!

GO CRUZ AZUL!! :D
