One important curse ends when the Liga MX champion is awarded, and another becomes even more brutal. Either the Rayados or the United States, one of these two teams will win the championship and enjoy true liberation with it, as it will be freed from a terrible streak.
What curses are we talking about?
- Rayados were not declared champions at its BBVA Stadium
- America has never been a true spectator playing champion
One will necessarily end forever, the other will grow stronger.
On the face of it, Rayados’ ghost is less outrageous considering they’ve only played one final at this ground, but that was against Clasico Reggio del Apertura 2017. TigersYou can understand the pain the crowd felt when they saw the most spectacular building in Mexican football shape the archrivals’ favorite championship and the most memorable final in Nuevo León’s history.
The 2019 final was in Mexico City, with Rayados beating Azulgrema.
On the other hand, the history of the United States is really interesting because it has won all 15 of its titles without being a spectator (albeit in its bracket), since the final battle against Pumas was played in the 1984/85 season. QueretaroIn fact, after both matches (Azteca and Ciudad Universitaria) were tied, the tiebreaker was a “neutral” venue.
Meanwhile, in the summer of 2002 I was an administrative visitor, But the fight was played at the Azteca Stadium, Well, he shared a house with Necaxa and, in fact, enjoyed more patronage than his rival.
What curse will end this Apertura 2024? For now, the US look to be close, with a 2-1 first-leg win as they are in a draw away from home at the BBVA Stadium, again crowning a ‘breakthrough’.
