Several matches in Liga MX have been postponed due to security concerns following a recent violent incident. The decision impacts both the men’s and women’s leagues, with the high-profile clash between Chivas and América in the Liga MX Femenil being among those affected.
The suspension of the women’s “clásico nacional” stems from events surrounding the death of Ignacio “El Mencho” Álvarez, a leader of the Jalisco Novel Generation Cartel. Authorities cited safety considerations as the primary reason for the postponement, as reported by La Jornada.
In total, four games have been postponed across the Liga MX, according to ESPN México. The league has not yet announced rescheduled dates for any of the affected matches.
This decision underscores the growing concerns regarding security within Mexican football, prompting league officials to prioritize the safety of players, staff, and fans. Universidad de Colima reports that the Liga MX has taken swift action to address the situation.
TV Azteca confirmed the suspension of several important matches, emphasizing the league’s commitment to maintaining a secure environment for all involved. The postponements are a significant disruption to the Liga MX schedule, but officials maintain that safety is the paramount concern.
The league is working to determine new dates for the suspended matches, and further updates will be provided as they become available.
