Liga MX Apertura 2026 tournament developments

Overview

During the Liga MX Apertura 2026 tournament, several matches resulted in draws and significant shifts in team standings.

In late August, Pumas UNAM and Necaxa played to a 1-1 draw at Estadio Olímpico Universitario. Necaxa took the lead in the 76th minute via a header from Julián Carranza, but Pumas equalized in the 83rd minute through Luciano Herrera. Keylor Navas performed several critical saves for Pumas during the match.

By mid-September, Jornada 9 action saw Club Puebla and Atlante play to a 1-1 draw at Estadio Cuauhtémoc. Walter Portales opened the scoring for Atlante in the 41st minute, but Mathías Tomás equalized for Puebla in the 53rd minute with a long-range strike following a deflection. The result left Puebla in 5th place with 14 points, while Atlante remained in 14th place, continuing a winless streak dating back to early August.

During the same round, FC Juárez secured its first victory of the season by defeating Tigres UANL 2-0 at Estadio Olímpico Benito Juárez, ending an eight-match losing streak. Colombian striker Óscar Estupiñán scored both goals, converting a penalty in the 66th minute and adding a header in the 79th minute. While the win moves Estupiñán into contention for the league’s top scorer title, Juárez remains at the bottom of the table, and Tigres sits in 15th place under manager Víctor Manuel Vucetich.
