2024 Concachampions Semifinals!!

Time for the Champions League semifinals!! Real Ma-what?? Descolonízate!!

We're talking about the Champions League in our part of the world - the Concachampions

America v Pachuca
Columbus Crew v Monterrey

In this episode, Fer and Cullen delve into the Concachampions lore - who owns it, who has scored the most goals, who has the most titles, and why are the answers to that all Mexican clubs??

We also delve into this edition's matchups. Monterrey has owned this competition, winning all of its 5 titles in the last 15 years, and they knocked out the Crew in the QF in 2021. Ohio-based regiments assisted in the Siege of Monterrey in the Mexican American War, and you can be sure it's on everyone's mind!!

Pachuca has some pedigree as Liga MX's oldest club, but America has the edge as by far the most dominant club in @concacaf , as well as their recent Liguilla titles. We take the rivalry between these two regions back to the Pre-Classic period, when the Chichimecas negotiated their niche on the periphery of the Mexica/Aztec empire.
