    Mexican Primera Division play-offs already started and it has been exciting so far!

    Jaguares - Santos Laguna was the most exciting match as everybody expected for their strong attack:

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N4wHWy0RZI"]Jaguares De Chiapas vs Santos Laguna 3-4 Liguilla Cuartos De Final Clausura 2012 - YouTube[/ame]

    Diference was Santos have a reliable former WC gk, Jaguares have a less than average one... by the way, Crosas lost his starting spot.

    Other results:

    Pachuca 1 - 3 Club América
    Tijuana 1 - 2 Monterrey
    Tigres 1 - 0 Morelia

    If they tie in the aggregate, the better placed team advances.

    Santos is in the final. They were down 2-0 and scored a goal at the 87th and 89th minute to advance.

    Oribe Peralta is on fire, third Santos - Monterrey final in the last 2 years. I give the edge to Monterrey again.

    Peralta scores the 2 - 0 @ 64'... Santos close to win the title

    Edit:

    Green and white Hoops are champions united

    By: Newsroom Staff on 21 May, 2012 10:42
    THE green and white hoops are still celebrating all over the world after our brother club, Santos Laguna secured the Mexican league title with a 2-1 victory over Monterrey on Sunday.

    The play-off final to decide the winner of the Clausura League saw Santos Laguna draw 1-1 with Monterrey on Thursday in the first-leg. And it was the green and white hoops who triumphed at the weekend.

    Former Celt, Marc Crosas was in the starting line-up for Santos, and the hoops took the lead in sixth minute when Daniel Luduena scored. A goal from Oribe Peralta just after the hour mark made it 2-0, and though Monterrey scored late on, it was Santos Laguna who won the match to become Mexican champions.

    Everyone at Celtic Football Club is delighted at the victory for the green and white hoops of Santos Laguna, and we congratulate our brother club in Mexico for their fantastic success in winning the championship.
