The U.S. and Mexico compete for best team in North America
Published on July 26, 2007
David Beckham’s arrival to America, along with his wifey Posh Spice, seems to have put soccer back in the news. Well, we’ve got a couple of newsworthy games going on right here in H-town. SuperLiga is the first time the four best teams from the U.S.’s Major League Soccer and Mexico get a chance to compete for bragging rights as the best team in North America. Today the Dynamos will play footsies with the Monarcas Morelia, a team with almost 80 years of history. On Wednesday, they meet D.C. United. The fight will be sure to bring out plenty of drama – and machismo – from both sides. A Dynamo win will help the team to the final game August 29, where the first-place team will receive a prize of 10,760,000 pesos (roughly equivalent to a million dollars). This entertainment will be all out on the field – no sightings of ex-Spice Girls to distract from the action.
