Azteca America … Mexican Soccer Returns!!

The preferred sport of Hispanics is back after a short summer break following the Liguilla final tournament.

Last weekend the Mexican Soccer League resumed play. During the month of August there will be a total of 49 matches, of which 20 will be aired by Azteca America, more matches than any other network in the U.S.

The four finalist of last season’s tournament began the first week of play with mixed results. Monarcas Morelia tied with Irapuato (1-1); Monterrey lost to Cruz Azul (0-1); Veracruz tied with the Tecos (1-1); and Universidad de Nuevo Leon beat Chiapas (1-0).

Azteca’s own Monarcas Morelia remains our favorite for the season. Although they finished the closing tournament as runners up after falling to the Monterrey Rayados, they still had the best regular season and finished first in points leading into the tournament.
