The stage is set for Super Bowl LX as the New England Patriots return to the NFL Championship Game and their opponent is an old familiar foe, the Seattle Seahawks, who are looking for revenge that has been brewing for 11 years.
On February 1, 2015, at the then-named University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, an improbable and agonizing interception by the then-unknown Malcolm Butler in the end zone handed a fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy to the already legendary quarterback Tom Brady and cruelly broke what already seemed to be a championship for Russell Wilson‘s team and the defense known as the ‘Legion of Boom‘.
Turco Mohamed the champion before Patriots vs. Seahawks in the Super Bowl
Cycles are round, that is, they return to where they started and this research is proof of this concept, because it is worth remembering what was happening at that time in the Liga MX. The reigning champion (Apertura 2014) was Club America, but that is not the relevant fact. It should be remembered that in that final the coach of the Coapa team was Antonio ‘Turco’ Mohamed, the same man who today led Toluca to the championship and, also in both cases, at the expense of Tigres UANL, who were the losers of the final both then and now.
But here comes the prediction that practically no one sees coming and in MARCA MX you will read it for the first time, in the next semester, when the Clausura 2015 was held, one of the most unlikely finals took place, if not the most unlikely, at least in the history of short tournaments, a certain Ronaldinho arrived when no one expected him to the Gallos Blancos del Queretaro and with Victor Manuel Vucetich they qualified in sixth place to the playoffs and in a story worthy of a fairy tale they got into the final where they faced the Guerreros de Santos Laguna, eighth in the overall standings also reached the last instance.
Will there be a new champion in Liga MX? The incredible prediction left by the Patriots vs. Seahawks in the Super Bowl
Queretaro’s dream of a first title was dashed with a 5-0 first-leg defeat at the old Estadio Corona with a four-goal haul from Javier Orozco. The famous ‘Chuletita‘ scored four goals and despite a furious attempt at a comeback in a 3-0 second leg at La Corregidora, it was not enough for the ‘City of the Aqueduct’.
And no, we are not predicting that Santos will be champion of the Clausura 2026 now that Patriots and Seahawks meet again in a Super Bowl, if we said that the coincidence of last tournament to the game for the Vince Lombardi Trophy in both cases with Mohamed on the winning bench, we must apply the same logic in this case, therefore that distinction should be for who was the winning coach six months later, that name is the Portuguese Pedro Caixinha, who has arrived this semester to FC Juarez that, like Queretaro has never been champion, will we witness a first time?
