Cruz Azul 4-0 Monterrey

Cruz Azul had a perfect afternoon at home, dominating Monterrey with a lethal offensive performance. Lizbeth Ángeles opened the scoring just two minutes in, followed by Valeria Valdez in the 37th minute and Aerial Chavarin in the 40th, practically sealing the result before halftime. In the second half, Valdez netted her brace in the 68th minute to complete the rout.

Despite Monterrey recording an equal amount of shots on target (four), and earning more corners, (six), they lacked sharpness in front of goal.

Cruz Azul, with only four shots on target, converted every single one into goals, showing maximum efficiency. The match was intense physically, with five yellow cards shared between both sides, but no send-offs.

Querétaro 2-2 Pachuca

Querétaro and Pachuca delivered a thrilling draw in a match full of action from start to finish. Dalia Molina opened the scoring for the home side in the 36th minute, and Victoria Ceceña doubled the lead in the 59th. However, Pachuca mounted a late comeback, with Vaitaire Robles scoring in the 74th minute and Myra Delgadillo equalizing in the 85th.

Statistically, Pachuca dominated the attack with nine shots on target and eleven corners, yet struggled to break through until the final stretch. Querétaro, who went down to ten players after a red card, defended with discipline and made the most of their few chances.

The draw left mixed feelings: disappointment for the home team for letting the win slip away, and relief for the visitors after rescuing a point late on.

Atlético San Luis 0-0 Atlas

Atlético San Luis and Atlas played out a goalless draw in a tight, hard-fought battle mostly contested in midfield. Both sides pushed to break the deadlock, but strong defending and solid goalkeeping kept the scoreline untouched.

The home side registered three shots on target compared to Atlas’s four, and the numbers stayed balanced across most other stats. The match had moments of intensity and fouls that led to a few yellow cards, but neither side could find the formula to score, splitting the points evenly.

Tigres 2-0 Tijuana

Tigres defeated Tijuana thanks to an early strike from María Sánchez in the 9th minute and a late decider from Jheniffer Da Silva in the 84th. The home side showed defensive solidity and managed the pace of the game well, neutralizing the visitors’ efforts.

Although both teams registered three shots on target, Tigres were far more clinical in front of goal. The match grew physical, producing five yellow cards and a red card for Tigres, but the scoreline reflected the home side’s composure and accuracy against a Tijuana team that failed to capitalize on their opportunities.

León 3-2 FC Juárez

Mayalu Rausch was the star of the match, scoring a stunning hat-trick (16’, 25’, and 49’) to guide León to victory. Juárez fought back with goals from Noemí Granados in the 42nd minute and Jasmine Casarez in the 87th, but time ran out for the comeback.

In a game with balanced attacking numbers (three shots on target each), León made the most of their chances, while Juárez lacked the cutting edge to walk away with a point of any kind. The final minutes were tense, but León’s early lead proved decisive.

Toluca 2-1 Guadalajara

Toluca shocked Chivas with goals from two international stars: Amandine Henry in the 30th minute and Eugénie Le Sommer in the 45th. Chivas pulled one back in the 66th through Casandra Montero but could not find the equalizer despite creating plenty of chances.

The visitors produced seven shots on target compared to Toluca’s three, but the home side’s efficiency made the difference. In a physical match that saw three yellow cards and a red for Toluca, the result remained in doubt until the final whistle, marking an important win for the Mexiquenses.

Club América 3-0 Puebla

Club América claimed a convincing victory over Puebla thanks to an early brace from Bruna Vilamala (6’ and 12’) and a stoppage-time strike from Angelique Saldivar. The Eagles made a strong start, asserting control over the match from the outset.

Even though Puebla created more shots on target (11 compared to 3), they could not find the back of the net. América displayed ruthless finishing, making the most of their opportunities and managing the game’s tempo. The scoreline underlined the home side’s dominance, while Puebla left with a result that didn’t fully reflect their attacking intent.

Santos Laguna vs. Necaxa will be played on Thursday, September 4 at 7:00 p.m., while the match between Mazatlán and Pumas has been postponed with no date set.
