“Our club is excited to welcome San Luis FC to Buck Shaw Stadium for an international friendly,” said Earthquakes Club President Dave Kaval. “We have not played a team from Mexico since 2003 and San Luis is building something exciting. We are looking forward to the match.”

The Earthquakes have played 10 games against Mexican competition, eight exhibition games and two CONCACAF Champions Cup matches. The Quakes have played UNAM Pumas (twice), Atlas, Chivas de Guadalajara (twice), Monarcas Morelia, Toluca and Club America in exhibitions. In 2002, the Quakes fell 3-1 on aggregate in a two-leg quarterfinal series in the Champions Cup to Pachuca CF.

Founded in 1957, San Luis has been in the Primera Division for the majority of its history and finished runner up in 2006, falling to Pachuca CF in the final. Los Reales return a strong squad from last season’s Torneo Clausura, including Peruvian striker Wilmer Aguirre who scored four goals last season. Another player worth noting is American defender Michael Orozco Fiscal. Orozco Fiscal has four caps for the U.S. Men’s National Team, his most recent coming on Oct. 8, 2011 against Honduras. The squad also boasts Mexican National Team goalkeeper Oscar Perez, Mexico’s starter at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Forward Santiago Trellez (Colombia) and midfielder Sebastian Fernandez (Uruguay) have gotten off to strong starts in this year’s Liga MX and Copa MX. Los Reales tied 3-3 over the weekend against Monarcas Morelia with two goals from Fernandez and one from Trellez. For more information about San Luis FC, visit www.clubsanluis.com.mx.

The final installment of the California Clasico is already sold out, but tickets are still on sale for the club’s five other home dates on the schedule.
