The Start of Round 14 in Mexican Soccer
In La Chispa, we bring you a summary of the boring start of Round 14 of Mexican soccer, where two matches ended in a draw. The final stretch of the Clausura 2025 tournament arrived, and this Friday, three matches took place, with two concluding in ties.
The opening match of the fourteenth date of Mexican football featured the Xolos de Tijuana against the Rayos del Necaxa. The result was a 2-1 victory for the Rayos, with goals from Pavel Pérez (52′) and José Paradela (58′). Raúl Zúñiga scored the consolation goal via penalty for the Xolos.

Entertainment or Just a Boring Draw?
The second match on Friday saw the Franja del Puebla face Tigres, resulting in a dull scoreless draw, emblematic of the boring start to Round 14, where few goals dominated the narratives.
In Round 15, the Tigres will host the Rayados de Monterrey for yet another edition of the Clásico Regio on Saturday, April 12, at 19:00 hours. There is anticipation that the broken locker room in Rayados de Monterrey could have an impact on this significant duel.

The final match in this opening round featured the Gallos Blancos del Querétaro against León, ending in a 1-1 draw. Aldahir Pérez scored at the 45′ mark, while Salvador Reyes found the net at the 31st minute.
