Columbus were really struggling that first half. Monterrey had an aggressive organized press. But Nancy made the correct changes at half time. He brought on Matan as an extra midfielder, which helped the crew to more easily break through the pressure. I also noticed that columbus were more willing to be bold and make the line breaking passes, as opposed to passing back the centerbacks, which was Monterrey’s pressing trigger.
Not sure if you were aware but Cucho was playing in the Premier League for Watford a couple years ago. I believe he was 21 or 22 years old at the time and he put in 5 or 6 goals during that season. It was a massive signing when he came to MLS, especially as a 23 year old.
@@darkecho4596competition is not big enough for a neutral site. Until it is, they need to go back to home and away. Home field advantage is too much for 1 and done. Especially given the altitude. Do you remember when FIFA either band or try to ban Bolivia's using their super high altitude stadium? They say it was just too much of an advantage as the competition was getting gassed too easily. That is why they played at that high stadium. They knew the other team will not be able to breath.
I don't think Cherberko could have anticipated that coming off the crossbar, or it coming down, he was also at a high speed. We scored 3 unanswered goals. We BURIED THEM.
Technically, the Crew scored all 4 goals because of the own goal, plus a missed penalty at the end. Columbus still have plenty of work to do, but them and Seattle have shown the MLS that defense and a complete team can win these, not necessarily super stars like Miami. LAFC was close last year many times, but needed one more quality finisher. This year they will be adding Giroud in the summer, and maybe one more big signing. Di Maria would fit in perfectly for that top 3, or better yet Griezmann. That would be a top trident for a MLS team.
When you come to the US to catch some MLS matches you should swing by Columbus! The stadium is electric and the team plays with passion and intensity. I'd happily buy you a beer before you have the pleasure of watching the world's greatest team 😂. Glory to Columbus!!
It’s crazy how ppl still complain about the highlight quality 😂😂😂 like that is in anyway in your control and not RUclips holding you back. Maybe they need to try doing a reaction to official channel highlights and see what happens so they can get it. Sorry that message has become part of your intro
@@BANGSOFinnaBlow One compromise could be watching the official highlights after recording your initial reaction and then providing your final thoughts after the fact given that additional context. Even then though official highlights aren’t always the best and can give an incomplete picture as well.
arguably one of the biggest upsets in concacaf club history, i’m thankful monterrey didn’t win because this just means another concacaf team can make it to the club world cup
I’ve been saying this for a while but we need to have a serious conversation about the crew being a top 5 team in the world, outside of Leverkusen, arsenal, city, and Madrid I can’t think of another team that wins with this level of conviction. It’s literally a team of champions, playing like champions in massive games every time without fail. It’s pretty unbelievable
The keeper lost that game. I dont think the game would've ended the way it did if Andrada hadn't given that ball away at the moment and in the way he did.
You might be right. Not only is it a home game for pachuca, but Columbus won't be able to breathe due to the altitude. It's a ridiculous advantage. The game should be at a neutral site but there wouldn't be a good enough attendance most if it were at a neutral site. The champions league is at a neutral site for the one and and done final. Until this competition gets to that level it should stay a home and away.
There was also a Penalty Colombus missed at the 90 that the highlights cut out
“Impossible is an opinion” LFG! VAMOS COLUMBUS 🖤💛
Love seeing an MLS side slap up a Liga Mx side. Warms my heart.

This replay doesn't show it, but that second Columbus goal came at the end of an impressive 13 pass sequence that started down at their own end.
I have Columbus winning this competition after seeing them defeat both Tigres and Monterrey.
It's possible but is going to be tough because Pachuca home stadium has at 6,000 ft. altitude.
Pachuca beat tigres at home 3-0 beat America 2 times this season and the final is at Pachuca also

Wouldn’t have mattered anyway. The Monterrey player would have scored it. Sucks it went as an own goal though.

As a STH, I’d take this man to a match on me.
For sure 🙌🏾

See you guys Saturday, hell is real!
Would've loved to see the pen go in at the end, but it wasn't needed. One month to go until the biggest match in Crew history!
I think you mean one week. 🟦🟧v⬛️🟨
Mexican teams play very physically borderline dirty.

The final is going to be played June 1st in Pachuca, hidalgo and the finals are only going to be 1 legged instead of 2

Dude you are joking right 😂😂😂
@@johnnyhernandez3703 nah we’re world class
Columbus crew ended Monterrey 20 undefeated games in a row in champions cup
Big Crew win!
Columbus crew owns Nuevo León the state where Monterrey and tigres are from
U should watch Necaxa vs Querétaro. It was to qualify to the quarter finals in the liga mx
Pachuca are still alive in the clasura they just need to beat Necaxa on Sunday
The highlights didn’t show it but Columbus could’ve had a fourth. They missed a penalty in second half stoppage time.
You should react to Emelec vs Barcelona
Columbus is MASSIVE #Crew96

Honestly glad Monterrey are out I don’t like them but I wish it was América in the final 😢 oh well tho hope Pachuca pulls thru
Day 6 of asking u to react to Ricardo quarsema
Monterreys coach sucks at semis he lost against chivas last year in semis with America and has never won a semi finals games in his career 😂
Pachuca is going to whoop Columbus
