Pumas UNAM: Zero and that's four

The Mexican champions, the Pumas of UNAM, sees no one in this tournament. The figures are to be frightened: they have lost their four matches, two of them local. They are the worst defense in the championship with nine goals conceded. As if that were not enough, the only own goal by Opening 2009 was the work of the defender Dario Veron puma, whose blunder against Cruz Azul has become famous.

A streak and would make any coach in the world to prepare their bags, but that does not happen in college lair. There are two main reasons: the first is the inexhaustible credit Ricardo "Tuca" Ferreti. Strategist puma has the full confidence of the club, and no wonder: the decline has escaped the last couple of tournaments, and made them champions in the Clausura 2009 after a shaky start. In the UNAM believe in long term projects, so the head does not seem Ferretti at imminent risk.

The other reason to doubt the cessation of "Tuca" is the irregularity of Mexican soccer. In a championship so volatile, a four-game losing streak is no big deal. Simply press the accelerator after the league to qualify for the prize. Still, it's a shame to see the squadron university with such a severe case of campeonitis. The next day students visit Tecos UAG, in a matchup of college. We must seize the yellow lights because, until the credit of a technician and the irregularity of a tournament has its limits.
