Weekend with many surprises in the Matchday 14 of Liga MX where the leader fell, one of the candidates suffered a shameful defeat, and 5 teams qualified for the next phase.

Where Can I Watch it?
Monterrey continues as the super leader of the tournament, with a 6-point difference over the second, but this Saturday they were defeated by América 2-1, one of their rivals in the fight for the title. It was a night of too many emotions where the goalkeepers were the protagonists of the match.
Rayados began winning with a very good goal from Maxi Meza, who hit hard and from the right after a very quick start from his team. However, at minute 36, Esteban Andrada tried to keep the ball from going out for the corner kick and made a mistake, leaving the ball loose in the area and with an empty goal. Diego Valdés took advantage and pushed the ball for the tie.
Already 10 minutes from the end Federico Viñas made it 2-1 and at 90′ the goalkeeper Luis Malagón saved a penalty from Joan Rojas to give the victory to the Águilas, who flew to third place with 27 points. Andrada was also sent off on the last play.

Tigres -319
Mazatlán +840

Where Can I Watch it?
Tigres, Tigres, Tigres… The thing about “Chima” Ruiz’s team is already very embarrassing and is that, despite being greatly strengthened and having a team with top-level players, they already have 4 consecutive defeats, and this time they lost at home with Mazatlán, the last of the tournament with only 4 points.
The Cañoneros surprised everyone with two goals in the first half, scored by Miguel Sansores and Francisco Venegas, and then they defended very well, turning goalkeeper Ricardo Gutiérrez into the figure of the match. Those from Monterrey could only score at minute 76 with Sebastián Córdova and now they are seventh with 21 points and need a miracle to enter the top 4.
