Liga MX Varonil is coming close to the end of the season. Cruz Azul,
winning their last five games, is at the top of the standings.
But I have Camila Ortiz here,
so I'm not going to miss the opportunity to talk about women, football.
La gloriosa Liga MX Varonil is already in its playoffs,
and we have some results coming.
Do you want to share? We have it on the screen, my friends.
Absolutely, let's do it.
I am gutted.
I know.
Because my pumitas.
Look, they lost their first game against Tigres.
But is this really a surprise?
It's not a surprise. Tigres is the best.
We know they're the best.
Okay, if you're a male Tigres fan, you know, maybe, not maybe,
you're definitely pretty disappointed with the way the team is playing.
But look over at the women's side because Tigres...
For many, many years now, has been dominating in the women's league.
We're seeing so many incredible matches.
First place in the regular season.
Is that your team?
Are you due to your particular team?
No, no.
No, I'm not.
This is propaganda.
This is not true.
This is not true.
Misinformation.
Misinformation.
But, I mean, you have to respect the way America has been playing,
especially the women's league.
I think they've really stepped up the play.
I'm not going to lie.
I've been calling it.
Two seasons ago, Tigres beat America.
in you know the final championship
and the way america played i thought they outplayed them and
i knew they were going to come back
and the second time around they won the championship
mexican ballon d'or award winner scarlett camberto
yeah she originally played for tigres and now she's
over in the nw cell oh yeah she's a great player juarez time
with guadalajara not surprisingly they
are the teams that were kind of like at the same level
in the qualification both qualifying in
In second place.
In third place, but Las Bravas de Juárez,
you can watch it here in Latin Nation, just like Tigres,
all the local games, hombres y mujeres, and guess what?
For free and en inglés, papa.
I'm the best.
Juárez is a team that has been surprisingly good for the whole season,
not only that, and also just like Tigres.
Day and night difference from the women's squad from the men's squad.
Juárez's male team is in dead last.
They won two games in the whole season.
Terrible, terrible, terrible performance,
but the women were consistently
defeating some of the top teams in the league, so kudos to them.
Watch them, we're gonna have them on a game
this Saturday right here in Latin Nation.
More playoff stuff, and then in two weeks,
20 and 21st, the very last games of Liga MX,
Tigres vs. América. Let's see if we can get
a little bit out of the North Tigres.
Okay, some basic questions from the guy that,
you know, is more football and now learning
more about football.
You know, I'm a World Cup expert, but when it comes
to these leagues, I'm learning about
it now.
So, in the Mexican League, Liga MX,
every male team has a female component.
It's not like the NBA, WNBA awards.
No.
Slight associations, but different teams.
No, this is the same copy-paste.
Copy-paste, yeah.
And I think that is the key to success of the Mexican League.
To stay relevant and competitive with NWSL.
NWSL has so much more money coming into the league.
Liga MX has been...
Relying on what is already built
by the men to bring people to the stadium.
And guess what? It's working
because Liga MX Femenil is one of the top leagues in the world,
providing talent not only to the NWSL, which is the hottest market,
but also sending consistently players to Europe to great success.
Also viewers, you know, we know that Liga MX Femenil,
the championship has is the most viewed women's
Football event ever in history
Women's World Cup in the United States.
Yeah, now I read we only got a little bit of time,
but I read a headline that we had on landnation.com about a collapse.
So was that the male team?
So we have really quick. Let's go to the standings.
Cruz Azul first place America Chivas and Toluca top of the four Atlas.
Saludos a Luis, sigue ahí.
Santos Laguna surprising recovery.
León and Pachuca, Miss Pumas almost out with a little bit.
But if you keep scrolling and scrolling and scrolling, you see Tigres.
Tigres, a team that has been famous for qualifying to La Liguilla,
the Mexican playoffs, for 12 years in a row.
And this year they collapsed.
Terrible, terrible performance away.
They couldn't win a single game visiting.
And for the first time in 12 years, Tigres, one of the most powerful
Richest teams in the country is not playing the Liguilla, my friends.
Total disaster, but the times are changing when Liga MX,
my friends, new money, new teams.
We see Atlas, we see Santos,
even Querétaro trying to challenge the standing power of
América, Chivas, Toluca, Cruz Azul.
And Cruz Azul, surprisingly,
pónganle un ojo a Cruz Azul porque se viene fuertísimo,
my friends.
