Liga MX: Why does Club America need to “tie” a direct pass to Liguilla

Club America has already secured its presence in the final phase of the 2021 Clausura in the MX League, defeating Mazatlán FC 0-1 on day 12 of the tournament, having practically “equal” in the playoffs. However, some small fringes are missing, so that Santiago Solari’s team can ensure their presence in the Liguilla direct and that no one can take them out of the first four places in the table.

To accomplish this, America must defeat Rayos del Necaxa, who are the Eagles’ next rivals at the Azteca Stadium. Once America manages to win this match at home against those led by Guillermo Vázquez, they need a series of combinations in other results to seal their way directly to the big party in the MX League.

America, if it wins against Necaxa, would reach 31 points, 12 units more than Toluca, which is in fifth place and 13 more than Atlas, which is in sixth place. Another victory for azulcremas removes Rojinegros from the game, because the difference would be 13 points in the absence of 12 plays.



It is the same story with Toluca, because the difference would be 12 to 12 points to play, as long as both Toluca and Atlas lose their respective matches on the 12th against León and Xolos de Tijuana, respectively.

With this combination of results, America should draw only on the 14th in front of the Tigres, to ensure its direct passage to the Liguilla, so it will reach the Young Classic against Cruz Azul, classified at the big party, as long as this combination appears.
