Carlos Vela does it again, and LAFC lead 2-0 vs. LA Galaxy.

The saga of Carlos Vela returning or not returning to the Mexican national team has become slightly boring, especially because the likelihood of him coming back is remote at best.

The gossip in recent weeks fueled by the LAFC player and MLS MVP's outstanding displays for his club during 2019 and Vela not totally ruling out a return, but he's not the only Mexican player with the ability to unlock defenses, play as an inverted winger, find space in-between the lines, score goals and drag opposition...

Monterrey's CONCACAF Champions League title sets standard for others

MONTERREY, Mexico -- These are the types of nights Miguel Layun came back to Mexico for. But first let's rewind.

The 30-year-old had a decision to make in January. With the Mexican international's time at Villarreal complicated by coaching changes and the club fighting relegation, offers came in for the versatile defender/midfielder.

"I put it all on the table, because I'm like that, I like to analyze in detail before taking a decision and I evaluated what I'd have if I'd left and what I'd have...

CONCACAF president skeptical over Liga MX-MLS Copa Libertadores reports

MONTERREY, Mexico -- CONCACAF president Victor Montagliani isn't buying recent reports suggesting that MLS and Liga MX clubs could soon be competing in the Copa Libertadores.

Battle of styles as Monterrey meet Tigres in CONCACAF Champions League final

Tigres and Monterrey are very different in style.

MONTERREY -- Ricardo Ferretti said on Tuesday that Tigres and Monterrey are the two best sides in CONCACAF right now. It's difficult to argue against that, with the same sentiment repeated by Andre-Pierre Gignac in his interview with ESPN's Futbol Picante and other players from both teams at the media day ahead of the CONCACAF Champions League final second leg in Estadio BBVA Bancomer on Wednesday.
