THE CRITICS AN AUTHORITATIVE VOICE

On his return to Mexico after 17 seasons in Europe, Andrés Guardado openly expressed his regret for the lack of evolution in the structure of Mexican soccer. The experienced player lamented the persistent presence of a high number of foreign players, the limited opportunity for young talent, as well as the existence of the promotion and relegation system. These issues, according to "El Principito", are priorities and have been stagnant in Mexican soccer for several years, even having obvious repercussions with the disappointing performance of the national team in the recent Qatar 2022 World Cup.

February 3, 2024 5:31 PM ET

SCANDAL IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

A day after Joao Rojas left Monterrey, the leading team in Liga MX, controversy broke out due to the leak of a message from the Ecuadorian soccer player addressed to his former Rayados teammates. In the message, Rojas criticizes Argentine coach Fernando Ortiz, accusing him of not having had the courage to tell him directly that he had to leave the club. The text was sent by the South American via WhatsApp to the rest of the team's players.

FROM THE LIGA MX TO THE KINGS LEAGUE

Must do better than last year's tournament

On the other hand, the Rayos del Necaxa have a debt pending with their fans, not only because of what they did last tournament, but also because of the bad streak they have been dragging for some time now, where the team has gone from being a team that was always in the playoffs to a bottom team that does not play at home and always plays the role of victim on the road, However, the start of this tournament has left the city of Aguascalientes with hope that Necaxa will take a different direction this tournament and can be present in the maximum party because the good start they have had in the first few rounds, has left a good taste in their mouths for now.

February 3, 2024 4:21 PM ET

They need to start scoring points

Last season, the Bravos de Juárez started the Apertura 2023 with a bang because halfway through the tournament, the team from the border was already positioned as general sub-leader and it seemed that the team led by Diego Mejía would be a danger for the entire Liga MX, as it seemed that the team from the ceméntales would fight for the title in the Mexican football playoffs. However, everything suddenly fell apart and they ended up eliminated from the regular phase of the championship, leaving them without a chance to be in the big party and having to rethink the next tournament with too many dates in advance. Now, the team from the border wants to return to being the same team that glimpsed the Liga MX and came to terrify the teams in the top positions, but in order to do so, the Bravos will have to start adding points since, for now, they have had a bad start to the tournament, being out of the qualifying positions for the big party, so they will have to pick up the pace and make their home stand out, since at least as far as this tournament is concerned, Juárez has been unable to win at home in the two matches they have played in the Clausura 2024.

February 3, 2024 4:16 PM ET

Liga MX is back

The eternal wait is finally over, the Liga MX glory is back to delight fans and strangers alike with the best action in the fields of Mexico. Once again, another tournament starts, where 18 teams will face each other throughout 17 rounds to try, first of all, to qualify to the big party of the national football, either in the playoffs or in the first six places that have a direct pass to the quarterfinals and then have the opportunity to fight for the title that will assure them a place in the champion of champions trophy and the next edition of the CONCACAF Champions League. Likewise, it will be very important to enjoy this summer tournament since once it is over, it will be a while before the blessed Liga MX returns, since there is a big summer break with international tournaments such as Copa América, Euro Cup, Leagues Cup and the France 2024 Olympic Games, therefore, it will also be important to see the performance of the players throughout these 17 days with their respective teams, since the most outstanding players will probably have an undeniable offer for the transfer market that opens the 24/25 season, making this perhaps their last instance in our League. Likewise, this Clausura 2024 will be another tournament without promotion, but with the drama of the quotient for not paying the debt imposed by the FMF.
