The 1-1 draw last night came with a few hidden surprises and hopefully something we can draw upon in the second leg this Sunday at Estadio Corona in Torreón.

It was pure genius last night as Monterrey defeated Chivas 4-1 on the strength of three goals by Jared Borgetti and another by Humberto Suazo. With a three goal advantage heading into the second leg of the series on Saturday, the Rayados are definitely in the driver seat.
