Club Leon beat America to grab the 2013 Apertura Title.
The Puddle would like to pass on congratulations to the 2013 Champions of the LigaMx Apertura: Club Leon. They took down Club America 3-1 at the Azteca and 5-1 on aggregate to claim the title. It's the sixth Primera Division title for Leon, but their first since 1992. All in all this is pretty huge for their club and their fans. MLS readers will no doubt note the presence of Rafa Marquez in the above photo, as he has kicked his career back into gear as captain of Leon.
It was a pretty exciting two legged series to watch, well at least if you're a Leon fan. They dropped two goals on America in the opener, but figured they might have a tougher time at the Azteca. They didn't though as America never really looked to get into the tie. Kyle McCarthy offers an extremely well written match review over at FoxSoccer.com
LigaMX will now take a break until after the first year, when they'll kick of the 2014 Clausura. If you're not checking out the product that they're putting out on the field, you're missing some entertaining soccer. Look up LigaMx on your local Spanish language stations and prepare for some fun, unpredictable footy.
