Millions do not buy intelligence or heart
It is not enough to have millions to spare, but you have to know how to invest them. In cruel professional football, the champions covered in banknotes dazzle, but it is far from being effective to spend them on anything, there are few who have the correct vision. In Mexico, the Liguilla shows the examples at the extremes of the four highest-cost teams: the rich one that knows this financial game best is Tigres, followed by América, favorites to advance to the Final, and on the other side is the worst of the rich, Rayados, dazzled by the expensive mirrors, and then, Chivas follows, both already eliminated.
El Rebaño once again demonstrated that although they have expensive Mexicans, they lack figures capable of weighing in favor of the title; The series against Pumas was decided since Alexis missed the tying penalty in the last regular matchday, as that gave them fourth place and the advantage in the tie by regulation and closing at home. History would have changed and his fans would not have to cling to false accusations of referee help to their eternal rival to take out his frustration.
The great failure of the year belongs to Rayados, not only because it is the team with the highest value on the market, but because of its form. Although the royal fans point to players who are undoubtedly superfluous and have little heart to react, in reality there are two main culprits: Tano Ortiz and Tato Noriega, let’s not give it any more thought, since they are the ones who chose these footballers and spent extraordinary sums that could have brought a team that delivered much better responses: They brought in the injured Tecatito, they paid Canales a huge salary, they renewed Moreno instead of rejuvenating the defense, they opted to extend Meza even though he is a cold chest, to name a few . There are plenty of arguments to point them out.
The Argentine coach’s América shirt was too big for him in search of La 14, so as soon as Rayados gave him a much higher salary, he fled to the North thinking that he would have no pressure and the millions would finally make him champion. He even removed the coaching staff that the Eagles had put in place for him.
And betrayal is committed more because of a weakness than because of the firm intention of committing betrayal: Ortiz let himself be carried away by a much more lucrative offer, rejecting the project he was building in America and thus, the Rayados project was then built with the new coach. like a house of cards, fragile before a powerful breath like that of Saint Louis. When you think that money does everything, all money ends up being made.
To complete the idea, Pumas, a club accustomed to investing little in reinforcements, took off the brakes and brought in an expensive coach, but with hierarchy to regain prominence and, on top of that, hired footballers of higher cost and quality; Although Toro Fernández is dazzling, we must highlight the two center backs, Lisandro and Nathan, pillars to reach the Semifinals. And of course, the commitment to Chino Huerta, ‘made in CU’, a phrase already coined in gold letters after giving Guadalajara a dance,
For the Final, I have no doubt in maintaining the idea that I have explained to you in this column in recent months: it will be played between América and Tigres, but their rivals are a guarantee that it will not be easy to beat them, so we will enjoy two dramatic Semifinals and spectacular. As it should be.
