The end of the year is coming, and so is the opening ceremony of 2021. That's why we made a clear mark and analyzed what the semester left us with; data that will undoubtedly be used for analysis and will further compliment the upcoming 2022 closing ceremony.
Yes, sir.
,,, Several teams spoke for their outstanding performances, the underwhelming contributions they left behind, and some of them spoke for their surprises.
America
If there was one team that dominated most of the game, it was that. The team that led the way scored 35 points and secured the game date lead by the end of regulation.
His position made him the most likely to win the league apart from the Champions League; however, the Conquistadores lost against Monterrey and in the quarterfinals (again), the Pumas humiliated them at the stadium. Solari's good work fell flat and Azulema's hobby was ridiculed.
cougar
The path of the Cougars is inversely proportional to the path of the Americas. Poor performances in the tournament put technician Andrés Lirini's job in jeopardy, plus qualification was an unattainable dream; however, a series of results, coupled with a late victory over the Blue Crusaders, boosted the morale of Aurí Azul and allowed them to qualify for Repesca.
In that moment, the chips were completely changed for the players, as could be seen in the elimination and the humiliation against the Cougars in the quarterfinals. Unfortunately for them, the trend didn't hold up in the semifinal against Atlas, but there was still a pleasant tone from the fans as they saw what their players were truly capable of.
Blue Cross
The Celeste family came to the game with the mantra of a rematch.A good performance in the closing ceremony of 2021 gave them confidence to the extent that they did not strengthen the line, but in the long run the situation had consequences for them. Irregularities resulted in injuries, match casualties, penalties and led to cement workers trying to recognize their scepter by repeating their entry.
At this stage, Sky's inconsistency eventually erupted and was eliminated by the Monterey Stripes, who knocked them out in the semifinals. Collapsing in front of the Northerners exposed the flaws in the equipment; the circumstances in Paradise began to call into question the work of coxswain John - who led them to the end of the untitled years.
Monterey
The guys didn't do too well in the tournament either. While he's won the USA game this semester, the team is all geared up and ready to win the conference tournament; and the situation doesn't end there, as his irregular scores put him in 9th place with 22 points.
They claimed dominance over Blue Cross in the rematch stage, but were unable to capitalize on their position in the first game of the quarterfinals and ended up tied with Atlas; after a tiebreaker, they paid dearly, and the eventual champions got a pass, and hopes for the er- were dashed once again.
Without a doubt, the biggest surprise of the tournament. He took a step forward with regularity and was looking to be America's super leader for much of the semester. He ended up second in the standings with 29 points, thanks in part to his wins at Monterrey, , and , and draws with America and .
The Foxes won their quarterfinal and reached the final at home thanks to their place in the finals where they knocked out the Cougars in the semifinals. The final was a tough stumble, especially in the Garisko match where they lost 3-2 to the Beasts, but lost 1-0 in the last lap of the match, while a 4-3 win on penalties saw them break a 70-year drought of not being champions.
Tiger University
The Tigers finished their hobby "halfway" and the students of Miguel Herrera are back at the top of the championship table and are looking for a title from the quarterfinals, despite not having a great game. Losses to Toluca and the United States, plus losses to, Atlas, Leon, Pumas, and Cruz Azul, leave a lot to be desired.
The collegians had to swim against the tide to beat in the quarterfinals, but they couldn't repeat that feat in front of the Lions in the semifinals for a title shot. This *** fans think about the scope of their team and the shortcomings they hope to address next season.
Leo (star sign)
The departure of Ignacio Ambriz and the arrival of A. Holland gave the impression that the team would not perform similarly; a situation that was handled by the coxswain, who led the team into the top three of the overall table.
His reflexes were clarified in the quarterfinals and semifinals against Puebla and the Tigers, respectively, which certainly made him a strong candidate for the duel. Unfortunately, the penalty shootout ultimately sealed his fate, but his performance **fans were satisfied.
Pachuca
The Tuzos, who were once the protagonists, had a semester of oblivion. His performance only allowed him to rank 15th after accumulating 18 units, a situation that ultimately cost technician Paul Pezzolano the spot.
The presence of players such as Victor Guzman, Jaro - Ismael Sosa, Rio Ibarra, Avelis Hurtado, Eric Sanchez and even goal scorer Nicolas Ibanez did not detract from a decent performance in the opening ceremony of 2021, which they hope to clarify in the closing ceremony of 2022.
