Great week

There was plenty of riveting storylines and intense games on Saturday in Jornada 6 of the Mexican Clausura. The Toluca-America game was a thriller. Vicente Sanchez scored on an awesome bending left-footed shot from about 25 yards but that was not the best goal of the game. Salvador Cabanas' late leveler was very skillful and graceful and difficult at the same time. I didn't really appreciate it until I saw it in slow-motion replay. He collapsed as a defender was on his back and with his last effort before fully hitting the turf he got enough of the ball with his right foot to knock it into the net.

Of course, there were also two 0-0 draws. Yawn.

Today's going to be a bit of a letdown. There were eight games yesterday but only one today, Tecos at Santos.
