VIDEO: Preki On Superclasico Draw With Galaxy
Chivas USA is top of the league, so even with some questionable calls on the field, coach Preki could still laugh at the final outcome of a scoreless draw.
Apr 12, 2009 3:03:48 AM
Chivas USA coach Preki is a position most other Major League Soccer coaches would envy - his squad is the only undefeated team in the league.
It was touch-and-go for Chivas USA at times, however, because the team was playing a man down for a good portion of the game.
However, the physical slugfest between the teams eventually led the numbers to be equalized when Galaxy forward Alan Gordon was sent off for his second yellow.
Things turned around even more in Chivas USA's favor when Gregg Berhalter was given a straight red for a blatant shirtpull of Alecko Eskandarian.
Ultimately, however, Preki wasn't unhappy with the draw, as he made clear that it was a difficult match.
Watch his take on the game below.
