Fox Sports en Espanol this week kicked off live and
exclusive coverage of InterLiga, the qualifying tournament that will
determine the two Mexican League soccer teams who qualify directly for
the 2006 Copa Toyota Libertadores. The eight clubs participating in
this year's InterLiga, which will be played through January 15 at
venues in Texas and California, include: Cruz Azul, Necaxa, Tigres,
Guadalajara, Pachuca, Veracruz, Monterrey, and Morelia. The action
continues today with an exciting doubleheader featuring Pachuca vs.
Veracruz at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, followed by a second match between
Monterrey and Morelia at 10:30 p.m. ET/7:30 p.m. PT. Both matches will
be telecasted live from LaJoya Stadium in McAllen, Texas.
The eight teams are divided into two groups of four teams each. Group A includes Pachuca, Monterrey, Veracruz, and Morelia. Group B includes Cruz Azul, Necaxa, Tigres, and Guadalajara. The eight participating teams were selected based on their performance during the Mexican League's Clausura 2004 (spring-summer season) and Apertura 2005 (fall-winter season).
The tournament began Wednesday, January 4, with a double header that featured a 1-0 victory by Nexaca over Cruz Azul and Guadalajara's 5-3 defeat of Tigres.
