Tigres Femenil look to defend their Liga MX Femenil lead against América

The Apertura 2025 regular season is coming to a close, and Tigres Femenil are determined to finish where they’ve been all year, at the top. On Friday night, they’ll face América in one of the most anticipated matches of the tournament, a duel that could decide who enters the Liguilla as the number one seed.

Head coach Pedro Losa isn’t letting the team take anything for granted. Even with a playoff spot already secured, the Spanish manager has made it clear that first place is non-negotiable. “We want to keep fighting for that top spot,” he said, confident in the mentality of his players. “It’s going to be an exciting and demanding match against a great rival.”

Discipline, defense, and evolution

Under Losa’s guidance, Tigres have built an identity based on discipline and balance. The team leads the league with 51 goals scored and has allowed only seven, combining the most dangerous attack in Mexico with the stingiest defense. Tigres haven’t conceded a single goal in their last ten matches, a streak that speaks to their structure and consistency.

“We’re still a team under construction,” Losa explained, “but our identity is clear. We reinvent ourselves every game, and our ambition keeps us improving.”

That focus has turned Tigres into the benchmark of the Liga MX Femenil, not just for their results but for the way they control games, dominate possession, and maintain intensity from start to finish.

A united team with one goal

Beyond tactics, Losa highlights the chemistry inside the locker room as the key to success. “We’re a collective team, and our strength comes from that unity,” he said. Players like Thembi Kgatlana, Diana Ordóñez, and Jennifer Hermoso have embodied that vision, combining individual brilliance with unselfish teamwork.

Tigres’ mix of European experience, Mexican talent, and a coach who demands precision has created a culture of excellence. Now, with three games left before the playoffs, the goal is simple: finish first, stay focused, and keep the momentum rolling toward another title run.
