If Pachuca had any chance of getting back into their match with Cruz Azul at 2-0, that chance has now evaporated. The Blue Machine has gone up 3-0, causing Elvis to leave the building while the fat lady was singing.
Pachuca Vs. Cruz Azul: Alejandro Castro Piles On The Misery With A Stunner
The third goal came courtesy of Alejandro Castro, who hit an absolute stunner. Miguel Calero had absolutely no chance to save his 25 yard left-footed shot, which looped over the outstretched arm of the Pachuca keeper before dipping and hitting the back of the net.
Elsewhere in Mexico, Toluca, who have struggled since winning the 2010 Clausura, are minutes away from pulling off a huge road win against Tigres de la UANL. This is the first game of the season where Tigres had all of their attacking options healthy, so a lot of people were interested to see how they would look. The answer is “not very good.” They’re currently being shut out. For American fans who are interested, Jonathan Bornstein did not start the match.
