Atlas vs Morelia Match Preview
Sixty years of no silverware can be enough to drive a fan away from any team, but the Atlas faithful continue to come in droves to see their favorite team season after season.This season comes with yet another upheaval in personnel, management and with the promise of combining the team's legendary youth system with savvy signings to deliver a title.
Easier said than done.
Atlas have bigger fish to fry in the Clausura, mainly the overwhelming shadow of losing their place in the first division and going down into the lower slots of the Mexican league pyramid.
Morelia do not have that problem, but do wish to jump out of the mid-table mediocrity that has plagued them over the past few years. Unable to become a dominant team after winning a title back in 2000, Morelia have rarely been protagonists in the league since.
Tomás Boy will have his work cut out for him this season, as another lackluster finish will most likely cost him his job. Saturday night in Guadalajara awaits both combatants.
Atlas vs Morelia Match Report
Atlas exploded against Morelia and barraged the visitors with goals -- five in total in order to begin the Clausura 2011 season as the country's top team.Gerardo Espinoza scored a brace, while Willman Conde, Christian Diaz and Daniel Osorno also found their way to the net in the drubbing. Atlas, a prime relegation candidate, started the season off in style and gave themselves a bit of breathing room above Necaxa, who lost.
Atlas manager Benjamin Galindo stressed temperance even after the huge win, as the season is long and Atlas' fortunes are not at all defined with 16 games remaining in the schedule.
Monarcas manager Tomas Boy was critical of his team's effort level but praised the opposition.
