Mexican clubs lead Liga MX and advance in Leagues Cup

Overview

In early August 2026, Club América secured a 3-0 victory over Santos Laguna, propelling the team to the top of the Liga MX Apertura table with seven points. The win, highlighted by early scoring from Henry Martín and contributions from Brian Rodríguez and Alejandro Cárdenas, underscored América’s strong domestic form ahead of the league’s pause for the Leagues Cup.

A few days later, Mexican clubs continued their strong start in the inaugural 2026 Leagues Cup. Club León opened the tournament with a 1-0 win against MLS side Nashville SC, thanks to a late strike by Daniel Árcila. Simultaneously, Club América recorded a 3-1 group-stage victory over San Diego FC, with Brian Rodríguez playing a key role in the offense. Both results highlighted the advantage Mexican teams enjoyed when playing at home and set the tone for a competitive binational tournament.

Following the Leagues Cup break, the Liga MX Apertura resumed with Monterrey seizing the top spot in the general table after a dominant 6-1 victory over FC Juárez. In the tournament's knockout stages, the Leagues Cup quarter-final matchups were established, featuring Mexican representatives Monterrey, León, América, and Toluca. While Monterrey and León are scheduled to face MLS clubs in the United States, tournament regulations dictate that América and Toluca will play their matches at neutral venues in California and New Jersey, respectively.
