Soccer: Mexican teams to meet at Sam Boyd

Tuesday, July 3, 2001 | 11:29 a.m.

Two of Mexico's top professional teams will square off in an exhibition match at Sam Boyd Stadium tonight at 7:15.

Torreon's Santos, the two-time defending champion of Mexico's Professional League First Division, will take on Guadalajara's Shivas. The contest is part of the Shivas Tour 2000, which has the club traveling through the southwestern United States for a series of exhibitions.

Tickets, priced at $52, $32 and $22, will be available at the gate.

Santos will be missing one of its best players as it has released forward Jared Borgetti to the Mexican national team. His goal gave Mexico a 1-0 victory in Sunday's World Cup qualifying match against the United States.

Santos and Chivas played in Stockton, Calif., Saturday with Chivas taking a 3-0 victory.
