Justin Herbert had to leave for the Dodgers to win Game 3 in 18. Dean Spanos stayed to the end of Game 4. The curse lives.

The fact that organizers will talk about better numbers for Leagues Cup across the board underlines a growing issue with the tournament: it doesn’t care about Mexican fans in Mexico one bit. And Liga MX is just as guilty of that than anyone else.

Javier Aguirre ate Pochettino’s lunch tonight. But Vasco rarely gets to coach above the Leganés-Mallorca tier?

Pochettino wanted to win this game a la Bruce Arena. That doesn’t work when you can’t instigate a break or hold possession on the attack.

This is the right attitude. The symbiosis between both countries is never more present than at these matches.
