00:00This tournament is so important to grow the game in the United States so much more than it is.
00:06I think this is more benefit to MLS than it is to Liga MX because the reality is that MLS
00:13requires to grow as much as they can.
00:16And, you know, dipping into the pool of fans of Liga MX in the United States is a very clever
00:22thing.
00:22And there's a deep pool here. I mean, I think there's, I don't think, I know there's way more Liga
00:27MX fans here in the United States
00:29than there are MLS fans.
00:31Well, not too long ago I was able to go to the America vs. Galaxy.
00:35I was hate-watching to its best, you know, on their cover because I didn't want to know that I
00:40was a Puma and an LAFC fan,
00:42so me iban a brincar ahà entre todos.
00:43But the reality is that what I saw is that El Amarillo está presente deep.
00:48It runs deep in Los Angeles. It was 85% America fans at Dignity Park.
00:53It was a great game. Unfortunately, America didn't win.
00:56Galaxy won their last game in weeks.
01:00But you're right. Liga MX fans here are some of the loudest, more committed fans.
01:05And it will be important to see if they show up and they dwarf the existing fan groups.
01:12I think absolutely they will. And I'm actually curious to see what you think.
01:15You know, last couple of times, we've seen MLS vs. MLS in the final.
01:20Do you think that we're finally going to see a Liga MX team take the win?
01:24I think so. I think that this year we have strong teams. We have Cruz Azul.
01:29A team that I think deserves to win and it will be great is Cholos.
01:33I think Cholos, because they're a border team, their travel is going to be less.
01:37You know, I think that they're going to have a big opportunity to go long.
01:40And the quality of players that we're going to be able to see.
01:45Lewandowski. Unfortunately, we're not going to see Messi.
01:48Well, maybe we'll see them. Maybe we'll see them.
01:50And maybe if they get far.
01:52You know, they're still close to the mandatory resting period for the World Cup players that were in the final.
01:59But big, big names.
02:01And some players are going to play back against their former teams.
02:05We have Diego Rossi going to Monterrey, Kuiper going to Monterrey as well.
02:11So many teams in this, so many players in this transit.
02:14Is there any particular game that you are excited to watch?
02:18Oof, I'm excited to watch, like you said, the LAFC game.
02:21I think that any game in LA or a city where there's, you know, a heavy Latino and Mexican population,
02:27I think it's going to be out of the roof, the energy.
02:30I hope there's not too many fights, but we'll see.
02:32No, la gente se va a portar bien, vas a ver.
