Since Blanco's arrival, the Fire turned around a season going the other direction. While they made it interesting over the final few weeks, they got the result they needed Sunday in front of a record crowd of 21,374 at Toyota Park and ended the Galaxy's season in the process.
Chicago outshot Los Angeles 22-5 and for 92 minutes of the contest.
It is necessary to highlight what Cuauhtémoc Blanco has been able to deliver during his first year in the MLS. He transform by himself a mediocre team to a winning one with possibilities of being champion this season. The way Blanco is playing I don't doubt that he will have a great chance to end up playing the World Soccer Cup for the Mexican Team in South Africa.
Congratulations to Cuauhtémoc who demonstrated to all those that criticized him that he is the best, and of course much better than the English soccer player for the Galaxy team who only came to USA to stroll around Hollywood.
