Veracruz's performance against América (4-0)

Friday night, América comes from a painful defeat at Costa Rica in the Champions league, and Veracruz come from another painful defeat but in Tijuana, in the leage, that made them lose unbeaten streak in league. 
The match started a bit loaded to the jarocho side, with the clear advantage and the steep pitch in favour of the Veracruz. The first goal came 15 minutes after the kick-off. A defensive neglect after a corner, Leiton Jimenez appears unmarked and scored the first goal.
39th minute, another mistake in the America's defensive line. A bad fielding of the ball after a corner, Meneses appears unmarked, asists Leobardo inside the box and he scores.
America team loses itself attacking, and in a kickback, Julio Furch (picture) scores the third with a magnificient definition. (video)

A few minutes more, and Christian Pellerano (who just entered the pitch) recieves a red card. América starts attacking a lot more (they finally entered the match) and Melitón Hernandez becomes a figure. He even stopped a penalty. Just to finish, a mistake made by Samudio leaves Vázquez alone in the box and he doesn't hesitate to score the fourth one.

The match ends and rumors say that Matosas will leave the Azulcremas.

The things we have to emphasize of this match are the following:

• the red power
• the yellow chaos and uncertainty
• the quality of the red players
• the full "Pirata Fuente" to see the match
• the return to the winning ways of the Veracruz

Leaders Finally

So, we finally did it. After 30 weeks of league, we are finally leaders.

Now, the next issue.

French Cup, French League Cup, UCL

4 important matches that must end in a victory.

We are going for the 4 trophies!

National teams or League Clubs?

So the question speaks for itself. In a federation, which of both should have a higher priority? To expose both points of view, please think of this:
Your national team is about to get eliminated from the next World Cup. You know that if your team loses the World Cup, lots of money inverted in sponsors, kit makers, salaries, image, etc, will be wasted. 
So the best solution is: get the best players (usually from your local league), make a powerful national team and qualify to the World Cup final stage.
However, who cares about the local league?
Any team could become champion and key players should participate in the National team instead of participating in the local league, because their HIGH level of skill makes them deserve to play in the National team instead of the mediocre local league.
So the National team is definitely more important than the local league.... ???
Now think of this: 
Entrepreneurs of the country, spending millions on transfers for the club to work well.
The club actually IS working well, after years of bad results different club managers and players.
Congratulations! You did a great job, you deserve a great campaign, lots of money in sponsors because you are actually the sensation this year. Maybe a title.
BUT WAIT!!
The National team is going really bad, they need help and they want your players.
What about taking your goalkeeper, two defenders, a pair of midfilders and of course, your striker that scores the goals?
Who cares if your club gets dismantled?
The important thing is that THE NATIONAL TEAM IS GOING TO THE WORLD CUP!!
So bad results return, you lose the league, your aspirations you had when you were playing well, your players (who are obviously good) get seen by the whole world and now "x" team in Europe wants them and they leave.
To this now comes the question... what is bad with this? It's what happens here in Mexico...
So now think of the new, young talented players in Mexico. Will they want to play here, in a mediocre league? 
*mhm*Pulido*mhm*Corona*mhm*.
They will obviously leave the country for better oportunities.
And now the current champion in the league exchanges players with the team that gets relegated. 
Players that play well end up in the second division. 
Few players have THE GREAT OPORTUNITY OF WARMING UP BENCHES IN EUROPE.
So really, ask yourself the question, is your national federation focused on the sport in your country (a competitive league, good players, new talents, players sold to Europe to PLAY and for millions)?
Or is it focused on money and image (have you seen the new Mexico jersey? They will win Copa America with it! They will play the cup with the second team formed by MEXICAN LEAGUE PLAYERS)?
And you? Who do you think should keep the best players? National teams or League Clubs?
Think of Europe national teams, with some old players, respecting the club interests and local leagues so they don't interfere with their destiny (championship, money, fans, sponsors, money for more players).

Just a video I found of the importance and value of a National team.
