Eduardo “Chofis” López is reportedly looking for a way out of Guadalajara after seven years with the senior side. The 26-year-old has only appeared in seven of Chivas’ 13 Torneo Guardianes matches so far, and he’s had to make due as a substitute in each — totaling just 122 minutes to go with zero goals and zero assists.
Having a 15-year-old as a senior team’s designated free kick taker is a bold and risky move. After seeing this incredible Fátima Servín goal, the decision is clear.
Querétaro Femenil was leading 1-0 in the 74th minute during a Liga MX Femenil match when the team was awarded a free kick from a considerable distance. Neither the situation nor difficulty of the shot fazed Servín, who delivered one the best strikes you will ever see.
¡Qué goalzo!
Say what you will about whether Liga de Expansión MX is a good or bad idea of Mexican soccer, letting the kids play has the propensity to produce the spectacular. For every mistake from a youngster, you’ll see something like this Jacob Morales scorpion kick.
Pumas Tabasco, a subsidiary of Pumas UNAM, played to a 2-2 draw with UDG at Jalisco Stadium on Sunday. The highlight of the match — indeed perhaps the best highlight of the day — was this Jacob Morales scorpion kick from the 21-year-old in the 22nd minute.
On Thursday, July 23, Liga MX returned with the beginning of the 2020 Apertura season (renamed Guardianes to honor healthcare workers). When Atlético San Luis and Juárez took to the pitch, it marked 130 days since the 2020 Clausura season was brought to an abrupt halt and eventually canceled. It’d been four long months, but we now have the complete Liga MX TV schedule to pore over. We'll keep this updated with the latest matches as the season moves along!
Last night, Club Tijuana and Tigres played to a scoreless draw at Estadio Caliente in a match that included six yellow cards and 39 fouls. Our friends over at the always excellent FMF State of Mind blog said the game “devolved into a series of fouls that choked off any momentum” and included “long stretches of the teams mauling one another.”
After a two-year spell at Liga MX side Tijuana recently came to an end, Erick "Cubo" Torres has returned to MLS.
Atlanta United announced the signing of Torres on Friday as a Season-Ending Injury Replacement Player. Atlanta was in desperate need of a forward to replace talisman Josef Martinez, who suffered an ACL injury in the first match of the club's 2020 season.
Meet “Cubo”... “El Cubo” Torres
Liga MX hit pause on Thursday's season-opening match between Atletico San Luis and FC Juarez, moving the match to Monday after a number of positive coronavirus tests were reported.
According to a report from Record.com.mx, more than 10 FC Juarez players tested positive for the coronavirus. While the number remains in question, the club did admit to multiple positive tests.
In a world marked by unpredictability, chaos and ever-shifting plot lines, it’s only right that Liga MX returns this week with the beginning of the Apertura tournament (renamed Guardianes in honor of Mexico’s healthcare workers).
For supporters of Club Deportivo Chivas de Guadalajara, the return of the top flight can’t come soon enough. Chivas, after winning the 2017 Clausura, experienced a dramatic decline that cost Matías Almeyda his job while missing out on five consecutive liguillas, recording finishes of 13th, 17th, 11th, 14th and 10th.
