It seemed that Atlante mis-calculated, thinking that they could hold on to the 1 goal advantage they obtained in the first match. They never reacted after the first goal, probably hoping for a penalty shoot-out, then once the second goal fell it was too late. Too bad some fans behaved badly, throwing coins and other objects on to the field. It looks like in the next round they may have to play the Houston Dynamo with no fans.

Why is it that fans do not realize they are hurting their own side? Look at the damage the hooligans caused Liverpool some years ago. Enthusuasm is one thing but their behavior passed the limits...
