What should Toluca do to be a leader?
The first step is for Toluca to win its match against Blue Cross, thus both would finish the regular round with 35 points. But in order for him to compete, he must win the match with a score of at least 2 goals difference, this means that he has to win, 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 and so on, this to tie the goal difference with América that now has +18 and Toluca is +16 and that would leave that item tied, giving way to the third tie-breaking criterion being the goals scored and there Toluca far surpasses América with 38 to the Águilas' 30.
This first explanation could be skipped if we simply Toluca beat Cruz Azul with a difference score of more than 3 goals, this would automatically give them a greater goal difference than their rival and they would take first place in Clausura 2024.
It must be remembered that the first place in the classification has the opportunity to receive the final at home as long as it reaches that stage, but it also has the benefits of closing all the rounds at home and now at least a week of rest until Liguilla duels start.
Toluca will receive Cruz Azul this Saturday April 27 from the field of Nemesio Diez Stadium o'clock from 7:00 p.m. (Central Mexico) and can be seen live on the TUDN and VIX signal.
