Cruz Azul, Toluca and Tigres fought as a single team winner in Mexican football's 2024 Apertura goal in a media-heavy week as they battled over round of 16 visitors Atlético San Luis, Pachuca and Querétaro.

At the end of the week, Tigres and Toluca cancelled their last seven septims and ended the holiday until Cruz Azul was ready to rest.

The eight weeks to go ended on August 18, when Tijuana beat Santos 3-1. The remaining participants await in the middle of this week.

The record was revived by Alfonso Lastras, coach of Atlético San Luis, Spanish technical director Domenec Torrent and Argentine coach Martín Anselmi of Cruz Azul.

Cruz Azul marched in first place with 19 points throughout the seventies of Victoria and without empathy, and with a difference of 14 points. Anselmi's team is the best organization in its history.

“It was a decent team that my players couldn't see, but they lost their own ego, everyone worked with them,” said Anselmi in his last 2-1 win over León.

For this reason, Atlético San Luis has a lot to offer. After three wins, the two empants and three reds meet in the octave position with our points.

In addition, Toluca, hosted by Portuguese football player Renato Paiva, visited the Hidalgo al Pachuda stadium hosted by Uruguayan technical director Guillermo Almada.

In his second Torneo al Mando del Toluca, Paiva finished with 17 points, a product of five Victorias and two Emporiums.

In its first appearance, Toluca won 4-0 against Tijuana of DT Colombian Juan Carlos Osorio.

This result was very satisfactory for Paiva: “From the amount of playing, the possibilities of the generations, also from a lot of emphasis on the bow to zero.” While I was at it, the Portuguese said that his conductors would see “the Presión de Ganar”.

On the other hand, the Pachuca de Almada has not managed to surpass the moment. The “Tuzos” occupy the tenth place with five points, and they do not have four points left.

El Martes, the Tigres of Iran, with its name in the La Corregidora stadium to face the humble Querétaro, the team team of the Mexican League.

Los Tigres maintained competitiveness in the first goal with the Serbian Veljko Paunovic in the technical direction, at the end of the season he played 17 times with a 1-0 three-pointer against Atlético San Luis with a Uruguayan match against Fernando Gorriarán, playing more than 70 minutes with a man.

“The equipment has a lot of potential and I want to maximize it, it has a lot of organ from my players, through their human and footballing quality,” said Paunovic.

For this reason, the “Gallos Blancos” of the Argentine player Mauro Gerk, with hundreds of thousands, are present in the ranking with one point, and his son, along with León, one of the two teams he did not score in this goal.
