Liga MX Matchday 4 \u2013 Roundup and Results<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We have reached the end of the intense matchday 4 of the Liga MX opening tournament<\/strong>, with very pleasant surprises for all Mexican soccer lovers, as we now have a tie for first place in the standings between 3 teams that, in theory, were not in anyone’s plans to be in this fight, Monterrey, Toluca, and Tigres UANL<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another surprise is that Puebla and Pachuca<\/strong> seem to have lost their way and lost their winning streak, since, after two consecutive draws, both have dropped to fourth and fifth place, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, the difference between a first and eighth place in the standings is only 3 points, so the next round could allow other teams to be leading the overall standings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liga MX Matchday 4: Tijuana vs. Am\u00e9rica<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first surprise we had on this matchday 4 was the victory of Tijuana<\/strong> over Am\u00e9rica <\/strong>with a score of 2-0. While it is true that Tijuana <\/strong>was playing at home, America<\/strong> was the favorite to win this match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As much Mexican media have pointed out, America’s charm quickly wore off after their excellent game against Manchester City <\/strong>during the week, as they lost to what has been one of the worst teams in the league in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match started with a good rhythm for both teams, but the turning point came in the 9th minute when Lisandro L\u00f3pez scored the team’s first goal from the penalty spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the goal, Am\u00e9rica<\/strong> was able to regain control of the match and generate goal opportunities, but they were unable to finish them in a good way. Las Aguilas had total possession of the ball in the first half, so we all expected them to equalize in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it was quite the opposite, as in the 62nd minute, Joaqu\u00edn Montesinos sealed the game for Tijuana<\/strong> with a great goal from outside the box after clearance by Am\u00e9rica<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this result, Tijuana<\/strong> was able to recover a little and climbed to #13, while Am\u00e9rica<\/strong> dropped to #15<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Result: Tijuana (2) \u2013 (0) Am\u00e9rica <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Liga MX Matchday 4: Tigres UANL vs. Atlas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When:<\/strong> Saturday, July 23 at 08:50 pm ET<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moneyline odds:<\/strong> Tigres -106<\/em><\/strong> \/ Atlas +300 (Source: MyBookie.ag)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Draw Offs: <\/strong>+250<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where Can I Watch?<\/strong> ESPN \/ Fox Sports<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What looked like it was going to be a very even and entertaining match, ended up being a one-term affair, as, six minutes into the match, Atlas’ goalkeeper, Camilo Vargas, was sent off for a childish mistake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vargas came out to cut out a dangerous play by Tigres<\/strong> and, after making two saves with his foot, he used his hands outside the area to block a shot by Gignac, which led to him being shown a straight red card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This put Tigres<\/strong> even more in control of the game and, after several attempts and a relentless attack, the first goal was scored at minute 40 after an own goal by Anderson Santamar\u00eda, who was trying to clear a ball inside the Atlas area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only 5 minutes passed after this own goal for Tigres <\/strong>to put the game to bed after a very nice play between C\u00f3rdova and Gignac led to the Frenchman being able to put the final nail in the coffin easily entering the box and sending the ball into the back of the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this result, Tigres<\/strong> climbed to first place in the table, while the current champions, Atlas<\/strong>, dropped to 14th place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Result: Tigres UANL (2) \u2013 (0) Atlas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Liga MX Matchday 4: Pachuca vs. Pumas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When:<\/strong> Sunday, July 24 at 08:00 pm ET<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moneyline odds:<\/strong> Pachuca -123 \/ Pumas +350 (Source: MyBookie.ag)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Draw Offs: +260<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where Can I Watch?<\/strong> ESPN \/ Fox Sports<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another of the surprises in this matchday 4 was the draw between Pachuca and Pumas<\/strong>, which caused Pachuca<\/strong> to lose first place in the standings, while Pumas<\/strong>, with another draw on its record, remains in 7th place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was one of the most anticipated games of the day, with many goals predicted, and it ended up being a disappointing 0-0 draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pachuca\u00a0<\/strong>generated a lot of danger in the first half, but the lack of effectiveness of their forwards and great saves by\u00a0Pumas’\u00a0goalkeeper,\u00a0Julio Gonzalez, prevented them from transferring this good momentum to the scoreboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the second half, Pachuca and Pumas<\/strong> switched to a more physically contested game, with many interruptions as a result of clashes in different areas of the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, neither team was able to get on the scoreboard as a result of inaccuracies in the last touch, as well as certain defensive interventions that helped to prevent both goals from falling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Result: Pachuca (0) \u2013 (0) Pumas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Liga MX Matchday 4: Puebla vs. Cruz Azul<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When:<\/strong> Saturday, July 23 at 08:05 pm ET<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moneyline odds:<\/strong> Puebla +104 \/ Cruz Azul +270 (Source: MyBookie.ag)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Draw Offs: +245<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the most attractive match of the fourth day of the\u00a0Liga MX opening tournament<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>did not disappoint.\u00a0Puebla and Cruz Azul<\/strong>\u00a0played an authentic match that ended with a 2-2 draw, a rain of goals that undoubtedly delighted all the fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the stars of the match was undoubtedly the rookie Santiago Gim\u00e9nez, who scored both goals for Cruz Azul<\/strong> and, it seems that this is the last match he will play in Liga MX<\/strong>, to try his luck in European soccer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match did not start in the best way for Cruz Azul<\/strong>, as Puebla<\/strong> took a step forward just 3 minutes into the match with a great goal scored by Jordi Cortizo from outside the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cruz Azul<\/strong> was not discouraged and, 20 minutes later, managed to equalize the score thanks to Gim\u00e9nez’s first goal from the penalty spot. La Maquina’s party continued and in the 26th minute, Gim\u00e9nez scored his second goal of the match to give his team a 2-1 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puebla<\/strong> reacted immediately and, in the 28th minute, equalized thanks to Martin Barragan’s goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the match was very entertaining, this draw was of no use to either team, Puebla lost first place in the table, while Cruz Azul<\/strong> still cannot find the formula that will lead them to victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Result: Puebla (2) \u2013 (2) Cruz Azul<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
