Just months after the Final Regia between the two clubs, both teams hailing from Monterrey were knocked out of the Liguilla quarterfinals
A correction: The two Liga MX teams based in Monterrey will not run off a series of championships making the rest of the league almost obsolete. We regret the error.
After last season ended with a final between Monterrey and Tigres, plenty of media outlets, including this one, hinted that more showdowns between the northern city's two teams would be coming soon. Neither will see the semifinals this season after resilient teams knocked the rivals out of the playoffs.
