Either the Rayados de Monterrey committed the serious sin of arrogance or Toluca came out on one of those nights where everything went well for them in their stadium Nemesio Diez, because at the time of the final count it was clear that the Red Devils were far superior to the Monterrey team as demonstrated by the final score of 6-2.

Without a doubt the score with three goals from their great scorer, the Portuguese Paulinho, reaffirmed that they are the main favorites to defend their title of champions, because in each game they show that they are improving to the point that after the 3-0 over Chivas last weekend, now with the 6-2 against Monterrey, they managed to place themselves second in the competition, two points behind the leader Cruz Azul.

Because it was of no use to the Rayados that ten minutes into the game, German Berterame when Fidel Ambriz went down the right to almost the finish line to send a diagonal cross that Jesus Corona finished and goalkeeper Hugo Gonzalez blocked, but at the feet of Berterame who in the small area only shot at the net.

Without a doubt that goal played against the Rayados, because the scarlet team took advantage of the visitors' slow central defense with veterans Stefan Medina and Sergio Ramos, who also at 18 minutes made his presence at the Nemesio Diez even more serious by converting a penalty at 18 minutes in the Panenka style, delivering it to the hands of the Toluca goalkeeper.

After the error came the scarlet goals

After that mistake by Ramos, Toluca gained strength to begin their scoring concert that began with Jesus Angulo's goal at 22 minutes when with a long-range shot he beat Uruguayan goalkeeper Santiago Mele.

Then came Paulinho at 25 minutes in a play on the left where he made a one-two with a little backheel that was returned to him to get into the area and shoot across to beat Mele again for 2-1.

Then Nicolas Castro scored the 3-1 at 35 minutes, but Monterrey came closer with a 3-2 in the 38th minute which made people think of a visitor reaction,but everything went down the drain when a minute later Paulinho made it 4-2 in the 39th minute to set everything up for the second half, where the Portuguese forward's scoring concert would continue by scoring 5-2 in the 51st minute and thus making the score a scandalous result.

Nicolas Castro closed the account for Toluca with the sixth goal that put things with a resounding 6-2, which the Rayados will never forget due to the way they were erased from the field of play in a scoreline that had not happened in the striped team since January 2025 when Cruz Azul thrashed them 6-1.
