The round of the eight best teams in Mexican pink football has arrived, bringing fans to a fever pitch across North America. The Mexican Women’s Championship moves into the decisive phase, with the title up for grabs in its eleventh episode. As in every campaign, only the top eight clubs earn the privilege to contest the final stages, making a favorable draw and solid form essential for advancing deeper and chasing the coveted trophy.
The Amazon are the defending champions, having dethroned America at the end of the Opened 2022 period, and in this edition they aim to repeat last semester’s triumph. For followers in Canada and the United States, the upcoming clashes promise high-intensity football, tactical battles, and late drama as teams contend for the league’s ultimate prize. GOAL provides a comprehensive look at how the Liga MX Femenil title is decided, including the path from quarterfinals to the grand finale and the key rules that decide who moves forward in tight series.
FORMAT
The eight quarterfinalists are aligned according to their standing on the overall table when Day 17 of the regular phase concludes. The team with the highest aggregate score advances to the semifinals, and if both legs end level on the scoreboard, the tiebreaker goes to the side that scored more goals as a visitor. In the semifinals, the same principle repeats: the four teams are positioned by their regular-phase finish, and the higher total advances based on aggregate goals, with visiting goals serving as the deciding factor in a tie. The final will feature the team with the strongest strike rate on the scoreboard; if the two legs are tied after 90 minutes, the match moves into extra time consisting of two 15-minute periods. Should the tie persist, the title is decided by a penalty shootout to crown the champion.
