Chivas Drop CL Debut To Tauro
2008-08-27 18:55:12

In Chivas USA’s first-ever official game outside of the United States, the Red-and-White fell 2-0 against Panama’s Tauro F.C., in a CONCACAF Champions League match tonight at Estadio Rod Carew in Panama City, Panama.

Tauro’s Edwin Aguilar scored the first goal of the match at the 7th minute to give his team the lead at half-time. Aguilar, who also plays for Panama’s National Team, added his second goal in the 67th minute on a pass from Luis Fernando Escobar.

The decisive return leg between Chivas USA and Tauro F.C. will be played on Tuesday at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., at 7:00 p.m. PT. Parking is free for the game, and tickets, starting at just $15, can be purchased by calling 1-877-CHIVAS-1.

Chivas USA needs to win by a score of 3-0 in the second leg of the match in Los Angeles to secure a spot in CONCACAF Champions League’s Group Stage. According to CONCACAF’s rules of the tournament, in the event the two teams are tied on aggregate score at the end of the second leg match, the away-goals scenario (excluding any goals scored in overtime) will determine the winner of the series, meaning that if Tauro F.C. scores a goal or more at the Home Depot Center, Chivas USA will have to win by a three-goal differential to advance to the second round. If Chivas USA wins by 2-0, the match will go to extra-time. If the tie remains, the team with the greater number of goals scored in the overtime periods at the end of the second match will advance. If the tie still remains, kicks from the penalty spot procedure will determine the winner.
