About Liga MX
Mexico’s top flight is officially known as the Mexican Primera Division. Founded in 1943, 18 teams battle for supremacy over two separate, but slightly connected, seasons. The first phase of the season is the Apertura, which runs from July to December. The latter portion is the Clausura, lasting from January until May. In both sets, clubs play each other club just once. In total for the two phases, clubs play home and away against the other 17 teams.
After the 17 games in the Apertura and Clausura phases, the top 12 teams in the Liga MX standings enter a playoff stage at the end of both phases. The top four automatically enter the liguilla, which is the end-of-season tournament. The teams occupying spots five to 12 in the table contest a one-game playoff to enter the liguilla phase. Once there, teams play two-legged ties all the way through the final.
Both the runner-up and the champion of both the Clausura and Apertura phases qualify for the next season’s CONCACAF Champions League. In the 2021/22 season, Atlas won both the Apertura and Clausura phases. However, these are, for the most part, separate seasons entirely.
Due to the popularity of the league, there are famous rivalries in Liga MX. Club América and Chivas contest the Clásico de Clásicos twice each year at least. Cruz Azul and Pumas are two other sides that make up the group referred to as Los Cuatro Grandes, the ‘four greats.’
Liga MX History
A nation’s love affair with the beautiful game is shown by the Mexican Liga MX in North America, where the enthusiasm for soccer crosses boundaries. A compelling narrative unfolds throughout the league’s illustrious history. It interweaves stories of success, failure, and the enduring spirit of Mexican soccer.
For as long as anyone can remember, Liga MX has been hailed as one of the most illustrious leagues in the Americas. Its rich history and constant drama have cemented its position as a premier American league.
The idea behind Liga MX
Soccer has become a national preoccupation in Mexico, as it has in many other Latin American nations. Thus, its roots can be traced to the early 20th century, when it was brought to the region by English travelers.
Since most of the teams were established by English immigrant miners, there was a noticeable English influence. A group of Cornish miners employed by Companiaa Real del Monte y Pachuca established the Pachuca Athletic Club in 1901, making Pachuca the first club in Mexico.
It didn’t take long for equivalent groups to spring up, and soon amateur divisions on a smaller scale were established. While clubs like Guadalajara and Club America would go on to become household names in subsequent years, the sport was still in its early stages and played at an amateur level.
How did Liga MX come to be?
A professional national league did not come into being until 1943. The majority of its members hailed from the Primera Fuerza, the league in Mexico City. However, 10 clubs were selected to comprise the new Liga Mayor, even though some teams appealed to the Mexican Football Federation (FMF).
A few teams joined from the Primera Fuerza, the Liga Occidental De Jalisco, the Liga Amateur de Veracruz, and others. These included Club America, Asturias, Atlante, Real España, and Marte. But the league didn’t start to take off until the 1950s when Mexico became a major player in international soccer.
Liga MX teams like Club America and Chivas de Guadalajara established themselves as early dominant forces, paving the way for the league to grow into a Latin American superpower.
When Mexico hosted the 1970 World Cup, the league saw a remarkable boom. The FMF modernized the national league structure to reflect the resurgence of interest in the sport.
Liga MX: 21st century and modern history
A young Chicaharito was a breakout star in Liga MX
Both the quantity and quality of teams competing in Liga MX grew substantially over the twentieth century. As the league developed, it introduced a new playoff system called the “Liguilla”. This has made the end of each season even more exciting. Hugo Sanchez and Cuauhtemoc Blanco were just two of the Mexican players who started to make waves on the world scene.
Fans of Mexican soccer have much to be proud of with Liga MX, but the league hasn’t been perfect. Many obstacles have challenged the league’s endurance, including economic hardships, match-fixing scandals, and the rare problem of fan violence. Nevertheless, Liga MX has often shown its resilience, guaranteeing that Mexican soccer will continue to grow and progress.
