So, last week my beloved Chivas de Guadalajara played European super-champions Barcelona in a meaningless friendly that ended with a one-goal draw.
After the match Chivas owner Jorge Vergara claimed that Chivas should have won; even if they only managed to get two shots on goal all game. Vergara's comments if anything were made to show that he is still backing up Francisco Ramirez.
Vergara went against his own word with his comments as he has been doing ever since taking over the club. According to the Chivas Supremo the club's philosophy is to always play an attacking style of football. Well, against Barcelona Chivas philosophy turned to bunkerball.
I can understand why the team played the way they did; a heavy loss could have brought down team morale. Still, no need to bullshit the fans. Many of whom were hoping for a defeat if only to get Francisco Ramirez sacked. The coach has yet to convince the Chivas faithful.
