Radio Feed for Sudamericana Match
The team will be playing tonight in Estadio Jalisco, the third largest stadium in Mexico. The stadium holds 62,384 and is guaranteed to be a sellout because Chivas owner Jorge Vergara (also the owner of MLS club Chivas USA), has said all tickets for the game will be free. Seems the club hasn't been faring too well, attendance wise, the last few weeks in League play. Vergara doesn't want to own the first team to ever lose to Americans on Mexico soil so the free tickets will ensure a full house to push the 'Goats' to victory.

After United's 2-1 win in Washington, Chivas coach Jose Manuel de la Torre was fired. Efrain Flores was named the new coach.This weekend under Flores, Chivas came back from an early deficit to beat Veracruz 3-1. Alberto Medina, Ramon Morales and Sergio Santana scored for Chivas.
Marc Burch will not be available to play for DC, due to the red card he recieved in the first leg game. Who would have thought in April that we'd be saying today that Burch is a critical piece to the team's success and will be greatly missed tonight?
Bryan Namoff and midfielder Fred, both traveled with the team nursing injuries.Namoff is probable but I wouldn't expect to see Fred who pulled a groin in the TFC game Saturday.
