Liga MX giant Tigres UANL could move to the Apertura summit on Friday if the club manages to keep up its winning start to the season at home to a Puebla side that's won just one of its three games this term. Guido Pizarro's men have made the ideal start to the Apertura campaign and have also clinched a top-four finish to advance in the Leagues Cup. Tigres sit third in the Apertura table for the time being, but could climb into the driving seat with a convincing win at the Estadio Universitario this weekend. And it just so happens Los Auriazules have won their last four consecutive meetings with Puebla, going undefeated in this fixture since September 2022. Puebla travels to San Nicolas de los Garza, sitting 14th in the table, having booked a narrow win over Santos Laguna in its most recent Liga MX outing. That's after starting the campaign with back-to-back defeats against Atlas and Mazatlan. Friday's showdown will mark the first meeting between these teams since Pablo Guede took charge of Puebla in December 2024. Guede hasn't managed to beat Tigres in four attempts as a manager to date, drawing three times and losing once to date.

How to Watch Charlotte FC vs Monterrey: Live Stream Leagues Cup, TV Channel
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Liga MX giant Monterrey makes its way to Charlotte FC for the latest round of Leagues Cup action on Thursday. Sergio Ramos #93 of Monterrey controls the ball during the second half of a Leagues Cup Phase One match against FC Cincinnati at TQL Stadium on July 31, 2025, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Sergio Ramos #93 of Monterrey controls the ball during the second half of a Leagues Cup Phase One match against FC Cincinnati at TQL Stadium on July 31, 2025, in Cincinnati, to Watch Charlotte FC vs Monterrey Date: Thursday, August 7, 2025 Time: 7:30 PM EDT Channel: FOX Sports 1 Stream: Fubo (try for free) Major League Soccer outfit Charlotte FC plays host to Mexico's Monterrey in the third and final round of group-stage fixtures in the 2025 Leagues Cup on Thursday. And both teams are in the last-chance saloon if they wish to reach the competition's quarter-finals, with each in need of a statement victory if they're to stand any realistic chance of making it through to the next phase of the tournament. Neither club has managed to win in the latest edition of the Leagues Cup to date, with Los Rayados sitting 11th in the Liga MX table ahead of their trip to Bank of America Stadium. Not only does Domenec Torrent's side need a win to make a late lunge into the top four heading through to the quarter-finals, but they also need to triumph in regulation time while hoping just about every team above them at present drops points in their next outings. The situation is even more dire for a Charlotte side that has picked up a single point from its two outings to date. The Crown, which reached the quarters of this competition in 2023, realistically needs to beat Monterrey by a margin of at least six goals or so, again while hoping the competition above fails to add any more points. The odds of making it beyond the group stage are incredibly slim for both organizations, despite their impressive performances in their respective domestic leagues this season. Former Aston Villa boss Dean Smith has pulled Charlotte up to seventh in MLS' Eastern Conference, while Monterrey is just three points off the summit in Liga MX's Apertura.

Lionel Messi injures hamstring as Inter Miami top Necaxa
Lionel Messi left injured in the 11th minute with hamstring discomfort, but Inter Miami earned a 5-4 penalty shootout win against visiting Necaxa following a 2-2 draw in Matchday 2 of Leagues Cup Phase One play on Saturday night. Miami (1-0-1, 5 points) converted all of their penalties, with Luis Suarez clinching the extra point with a finish off the underside of the crossbar after a wild game that saw both teams finish with 10 men. Herons goalkeeper Rocco Rios Novo made one save, thwarting Tomas Badaloni's attempt from the spot. Earlier, Badaloni scored his third of the tournament in the 33rd minute for Necaxa (1-0-1, 4 points), who played 11-on-10 for 43 minutes after Inter Miami's Maximiliano Falcon was ejected for denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity with a 17th-minute foul. Cristian Calderon's second yellow card in the 60th minute evened numbers before Necaxa's Ricardo Montreal and Miami's Jordi Alba traded goals after the 80th minute. Miami's Telasco Segovia opened the scoring a minute after Messi's departure. The 38-year-old Messi limped off the field under his own power. Miami manager Javier Mascherano confirmed postgame that Messi felt hamstring soreness, and expressed optimism it was relatively minor. Club America 3 (8), Minnesota United 3 (7) All eight penalty takers converted to lift 10-man Club America to an important two points with an 8-7 penalty shootout victory after rallying from behind three times. Sebastian Caceres' 90th-minute header pulled America (0-0-2, 3 points) level from behind for a third time in the match and fifth time in the tournament. Goalkeeper Luis Malagon then followed a sensational denial of Carlos Harvey in second-half stoppage time with a penalty save of Nicolas Romero on Minnesota's eighth PK to help seal the shootout win. The Mexico City outfit previously tied it at 1-1 through Michael Boxall's own goal in the 27th minute and 2-2 on Jose Zuniga's 53rd-minute contribution. Tani Oluwaseyi and Bongi Hlongwane each scored their second goals of the tournament for Minnesota (1-0-1, 4 points). Harvey then put the Loons up 3-2 in the 65th minute, three minutes after America's Igor Lichnovsky received his second yellow card. Pumas UNAM 3, Atlanta United 2 Coco Carrasquilla completed a second-half brace for his second and third goals of the tournament and Pumas held on for victory despite the late ejection of their goalkeeper. Alvaro Angulo scored the earlier goal for Pumas (1-0-1, 5 points). Then he played in goal for the final moments after Keylor Navas was sent off in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time in a match played in Orlando, Fla. Atlanta (0-2-0, 0 points) took a 2-1 lead into halftime through an own-goal from Navas and a late-first-half strike from Emmanuel Latte Lath. But the Five Stripes were eliminated from tournament contention after conceding multiple second-half goals for a second consecutive match. Carrasquilla leveled at 2-2 in the 62nd minute with a powerful finish from the edge of the penalty area, then put Pumas in front in 89th when he put in the rebound of his own saved penalty. Atletico San Luis 2 (4), Real Salt Lake 2 (1) Andres Sanchez saved one penalty in regulation, then one more to help visiting Atletico San Luis to a hard-earned shootout win in Sandy, Utah. Miguel Garcia and Joao Pedro scored in regulation for San Luis (0-1-1, 2 points) before all four PK takers converted in the tiebreaker (4-1). Braian Angulo scored both goals for Real Salt Lake (0-0-2, 3 points), including an 88th-minute equalizer that snuck inside the far right post on what looked to be an intended cross. But Diego Luna's failure to convert from the spot in regulation against Sanchez forced the shootout, where Brayan Vera missed the target and Sanchez saved Justen Glad. Orlando City 3, Atlas 1 Martin Ojeda scored the decisive goal in the 57th minute to boost Orlando City's hopes of reaching the knockout phase and eliminate visiting Atlas from contention. Ivan Angulo opened the scoring, and Marco Pasalic added very late insurance 12 minutes into second-half stoppage time seal the win for Orlando (1-0-1, 4 points). The Lions opened their tournament with a 1-1 draw against Pumas UNAM and lost the ensuing penalty shootout. Matias Coccaro briefly leveled the contest in the 50th minute for Atlas (0-2-0, 0 points), which lost its opening match 2-1 to Inter Miami on a stoppage-time goal assisted by Messi. Coccaro was later sent off in second-half stoppage time before Pasalic's tally for his role in a late skirmish that involved several players from both teams. Portland Timbers 1, Queretaro 0 Cristhian Paredes scored his second goal in as many appearances in the 36th minute to keep Portland perfect against 10-man Queretaro. Paredes' powerful low finish from the second phase of a corner kick followed his first goal of the regular season in a 1-0 victory at LAFC a week ago. James Pantemis made two saves for Portland (2-0-0, six points) to keep his second clean sheet of the tournament and fifth in all competitions. Jonathan Perlaza became the second Queretaro player sent off in as many games in the 45th minute as the Gallos Blancos (0-2-0, 0 points) were eliminated from tournament contention.

Lionel Messi injury update — When will the Argentina captain return for Inter Miami?
Inter Miami captain Lionel Messi will be sidelined indefinitely with what the Major League Soccer (MLS) team described as a 'minor muscle injury in his right leg' in a statement on Sunday. The 38-year-old Argentine legend suffered an upper right leg injury early in Miami's penalty-kicks home win over Mexico's Necaxa on Saturday in a Leagues Cup match. Messi went out in the 11th minute but walked off the field and into the locker room. Messi 'underwent medical tests to evaluate the extent of the muscle discomfort', which forced him out of the match, Inter Miami said in its statement.

His medical clearance will depend on his clinical progress and response to treatment.' That means there is no timetable for a return by the Miami talisman, who shares the MLS season lead with 18 goals and also has nine assists in 18 matches. Jordi Alba, who netted an equaliser for Miami in second-half stoppage time to set up the penalty shootout the hosts won 5-4, said Messi's early exit was 'a huge sadness for the whole team.' Inter Miami has won 12 of 22 matches this season and — with 42 points — is fifth in the Eastern Conference, eight points adrift of leader Philadelphia but with three matches in hand. Any extended absence also would be a major blow for Miami in the Leagues Cup, which Inter won in 2023 just after Messi arrived in South Florida. Miami, which will host UNAM Pumas on Wednesday, ranks second on the MLS table to qualify for the Leagues Cup knockout stage with five points and would clinch a quarterfinal berth with a victory.
