A bit of a surprise as Mazatlan and Puebla opened the 2022 Apertura season in a match with a lot of goals, where Puebla made a statement with the 4-2 away win. The match was expected to be the second of the tournament, but the Necaxa versus Toluca opener was postponed because of thunderstorms in the area. Thus Mazatlan and Puebla was the opening match, and it was a goal filled and exciting match in which Puebla had a great offensive performance to get the win. Puebla will go back home to play their first home match against Santos, while Mazatlan will remain at home to get a tough visit from Tigres.
