Jozy Altidore has been no stranger to scoring nice goals this season, but the one he bagged this
weekend is arguably among his best of the year.
Altidore finished off a beautiful passing sequence in AZ Alkmaar's match against Heerenveen when
he got an open look from close range after a beautiful first touch that got him by a defender.
Diego Restrepo earned the start for America de Cali on Saturday for the Colombian Clausura
quarterfinals but the club played to a disappointing draw at home to Once Caldas in the first leg.
The last few days have been a wild ride for American goalkeeper Diego Restrepo who is now being
looked upon to guide America de Cali in a pivotal time in the club's history.
One of the writers for another SB Nation MLS blog is wondering if the Seattle Sounders get
enough from their Vegas Combine. Shouldn't a team with Seattle's resources be able to capture more
talent out of the draft than just those that attend the MLS Combine? Possibly this is true, but it
ignores that the Sounders Vegas Combine discovered many talents and it offers the scouting and
coaching staff a three day calibration clinic.
17.12.2011 - 13 veces campeón colombiano (junto a Millonarios el más campeón) y 4 veces
finalista de la Copa Libertadores, América de Cali descendió hoy, por primera vez en su historia,
a la segunda división del fútbol colombiano.
Con un promedio de 1.76 quedó (anteúltimo) en definición de Promoción para dirimir la
permanencia vs el subcampeón de la Segunda, Patriotas de Tunja.
With the relegation of Colombian powerhouse America de Cali for the first time in the team's
84-year history, speculation was that Roger Torres' loan may finally turn into a permanent transfer
to the Philadelphia Union. Instead, it appears that Cali's fall could bring in a different player
to MLS and Philadelphia.
21.12.2011 - "Me dijeron que no pasaría diciembre",
denunció (públicamente)
Carlos Chávez, el arquero de Patriotas que, con la conversión de
su penal sentenció el ascenso de su equipo y el
histórico descenso de América de Cali a
la divisional B colombiana.
