Last minute goal crushes top of the group aspirations
By: Rafael | August 18th, 2008Out of all the worse feelings there is in the world, having your team lose in the last minute has to be one of them. It looks like karma took its toll. Just last week we were celebrating Leandro’s GOLAZO against Toluca in the 45th minute and yesterday a nice goal by the juvenile ElÃas Hernández in the last minute sealed the deal for Monarcas Morelia.
It was a tight game with both teams being firm in the back. It would only take a touch of magic to brake the deadlock and that is exactly what happened. In injury time Landin, who had just come in as a sub, crossed the ball landing in the feet of Hernández who controled the ball in the box excelently putting the ball inside the net.
Cacho was eager to score his first goal as a Puma, only being denied by Muñoz and hitting the crossbar in the first half. Dante Lopez played a very physical game but the opportunities wouldnt open up. “Tuca” Ferreti saw on from the stadium as he was serving a one game ban from the last game.
The second half must have been the most boring in the whole tournament. Some dub Morelia as the most boring team in all of Mexico. Pumas kept playing the long ball and it looked like the draw was eminent. Luis Fernando Tena made the changes and that was the difference, but being a Pumas fan there were 3 things that bothered me after yesterdays loss.
1. If we would have won, we would have been first place in the famous group 2 with the likes of America, Chivas, and Cruz Azul
2. Morelia is in the same group as us and despite playing the most unattractive play in all of Mexico they have the same number of points as us now and with this win is now battling it out for the top places in the group
3. Tecos is leading the way in our group now…. enough said.
I dont know about you guys but after Sunday’s loss i am about to go see that amazing Leandro goal once again to cheer me up , which by the way i uploaded. Or Sven with a sombrero and a piñata, maybe that can put a smile in my face.

Tough loss. I knew this could happen however, seems like things can’t always go right.
