ROGER's COMMENTS

        After four weeks of action, the only undefeated team is
     the amazing Pachuca squad. But that is not all, the 'Tuzos'
     are also the only team keeping is goal as it was prior to
     the beggining of the season: No goals allowed. In the other
     hand, there are only two winningless teams, U.A.N.L. and 
     U.A.T. Tigers and Roadrunners got draws this week playing
     Leon, and Cruz Azul, respectively. At Azteca stadium, on
     Saturday, Pacheco made the first one for the 'Cementeros',
     but then Rene Paul Moreno got the equalizer, and final score
     1-1. On Saturday night at Jalisco Stadium pitch, the leading
     scorer of the tournament, brazilian Joao Vanderbei, gave
     Foxes the victory over tough Cougars 1-0. On Friday, the Red
     Sharks visited Zapopan, Jalisco to meet U.A.G. but they went
     back home with empty jaws as they got beaten 1-0. For 'Tecos'
     the scorer was Javier 'Chicharo' Hernandez. On Sunday noon,
     there was a thriller at Azteca Stadium. The Eagles lost their
     second in a row, this time by a score of 3-4 against Puebla.
     During the game, America forward Hugo Sanchez, and Puebla
     goalie Pablo Larios had several discussions, arguing each other.
     Hugo was booked, and hence forced to stop talking. In an inter-
     view after the game, Larios declared: "He (Hugo) is an experi-
     mented player and knows his job pretty well. He was provoking
     me all game long, but I never fell in his game. This time I
     beat him, as we came up with a great victory". On Sunday night,
     in a sold out at Azulgrana Stadium, the Iron Colts had no mercy
     at all and blow out the 'Chivas' 5-1. We were supposed to have
     some interviews of this game; but Miguel Figueroa, who was co-
     vering the game at the ground level, got lost when he entered
     into Atlante's locker room. Then we lost the communication with 
     Azulgrana Stadium, and so far I have no news about Miguel. :-)
