Well that match stunk. Another nil-nil draw, this time to start the season against Independiente. So instead of a rousing start to the new season, the team run out and lay another egg.

Why Newell’s Will Get Past Emelec
By: Jeremy | 5 Comments
Of the last 7 Copa Libertadores ties that resulted in a 0-0 draw in the first leg, the visiting team actually advanced by virtue of a tie or victory in the second round. So my math says, based on this very limited statistical sample, that Newell’s has a 42% chance to advance in Ecuador.

Newell’s stomped a big old mud hole in Aldovisi, winning 3-0 with 2 by Boghossian and 1 from Sperdutti. On a side note, it appears the Shotgun nickname for Bogo is catching on since I have seen it a couple of times lately.
Of course, beating a team from the Nacional B should be the expected outcome. Still, they apparently looked good, but since it was a friendly at the beach, no TV.

Ok, make up posts seem to be a way of life for me lately. Instead of rehashing all the minutia over the last couple of weeks since my last post, let’s take a bit of a closer look at La Lepra’s first signing for 2010. EDIT:This signing makes even more sense when you consider that Vangioni is generating a good bit of interest.
