00:00Let's break down the standings and how the teams are looking.
00:04We are almost there for the Liguilla.
00:06I mean, the powerhouses up there, you know, you got Toluca,
00:09El Campeon, Electoral Campeon in first place, second place, America,
00:12really being a contender again for another trophy.
00:16Teams like Tigres, Monterrey, Cruz Azul, and yes, Cholos de Tijuana
00:21on the top of the league.
00:23And it's good to see a team like Cholos with a good coach like El Loco Abreu
00:28and, of course, the little kid, the youngster, La Estrella Mexicana,
00:32Gilberto Mora, scoring goals for Cholos and making a difference.
00:35The two teams from the border, my friends, are in the top eight.
00:39Juarez, Tigres and Juarez, like you know, my friends, are here on Latin Nation.
00:44That's right.
00:45Liga MX, live games in English.
00:48Because if you didn't know,
00:50aquĂ in Latin Nation, we have La Gloriosa Liga MX.
00:54Y Tigres, Juarez are the main teams,
00:57but we're also going to show all the teams.
00:59What is your favorite team of the Mexican League, Alex?
01:01I mean, is it, is that even a question?
01:05I think it's going to be Tigres all day.
01:06And not even just because they're here at Latin Nation,
01:08all in English, by the way,
01:10but just because the star power that they have.
01:12I mean, one of my favorites, Angel Correa,
01:14they're, you know, providing assists in every game.
01:16But I think that they're very strong contenders for this season.
01:19Juan Bruneta, another standout player for Tigres.
01:22Guignac, Nahuel in the back.
01:24Unfortunately, they were not able to get the result on their last game.
01:29They tied 1-1 with Cruz Azul on a very dramatic.
01:32Chiba, break it down for me.
01:34Do you think that was a foolish mistake from a defender
01:37that came in the second half with fresh legs?
01:40You would think that he would be more collected,
01:41but it wasn't the case.
01:42I mean, Tigres dominated the entire game.
01:44Cruz Azul, they didn't even have a chance.
01:46But again, this defender comes in and gives away a free penalty kick for Cruz Azul
01:50to, at the last minute, turning around the Cruz Azul Yada
01:56and scoring that 1-1.
01:57They did not deserve that.
01:59But in soccer and football, he's at a point to severing the goals.
02:02And Cruz Azul scored that 1-1 goal.
02:04And unfortunately for Tigres, they didn't do enough to score more goals.
02:09That's right.
02:10And that had a direct effect on the standings.
02:12Now Cruz Azul is well done in that top five.
02:15Tigres is fighting that for the middle of the top ten.
02:18That will move on eventually to the Liguilla.
02:20Let's do just a quick refresher.
02:21The spots from one to six qualify directly.
02:25Seven, eight, nine, and ten.
02:27They go into a play-in.
02:29Chiba, do you like this format?
02:32Or do we like the straight eight that qualify?
02:35I mean, play-in, we've seen in the past previous seasons that it's not the best.
02:41You know, for some people it is because it's more opportunities for other teams.
02:45Teams like Mazatlán, like even Pumas, Chivas that aren't having the best of the seasons.
02:50They have a chance to come up.
02:51But I think that the first eight should advance to straight Liguilla.
02:55But speaking of Juarez, let me tell you something about Juarez.
02:57They play Atlas in El Estadio Jalisco, doing very good at starting with the 1-0, dominating the game.
03:03But Atlas and Su Casa, even though there was not a lot of fans, they dominated the game.
03:07They came back and they beat Juarez on a 3-1.
03:09They stunned Juarez.
03:11Everybody thought Juarez was going to take the win because Atlas had a lot of injuries.
03:15And Juarez has been playing an amazing football.
03:17Three goals.
03:18Three games in a row that they scored three goals.
03:20So, Atlas took the game and Juarez, you know, goes down on the table.
03:24But they're looking pretty good.
03:26Murillo in the back.
03:27They have a lot of decent players.
03:29Murillo, a great player.
03:30He was one of the key defenders for LAFC in a championship team.
03:36Alex Crespo, now tell me.
03:38Juarez, do you think that they're going to do a deep run in this Liguilla?
03:43I mean, as I see it keep going, I'm...
03:47To be honest, I'm not sure.
03:49Because, you know, they've been stuck at the mid-table for, you know, since we've been covering them.
03:55And I just don't see them moving up or down, really.
03:59Tigres, we've seen, be in their fifth place spot.
04:03Well deserved.
04:04But, you know, as for Juarez, I...
04:06To be honest, I'm not sure how they're going to go.
