After 15 years without lifting a title and with a crisis that seemed endless, Toluca broke its drought and added the eleventh star to its shield. 🌟
The long wait ended, and the team returned to the top of Liga MX, unlike other clubs that continue to find their way.
Among those teams are the Pumas de la UNAM, who have gone 13 years without being champions since their last victory in 2011 against Monarcas.
Despite being one of the most successful clubs in Mexican football, their trophy case remains intact, although Toluca’s recent coronation could change their luck soon.
There is a curious pattern between the two teams: every time Toluca is crowned, Pumas wins the championship the following year. 🤔
This sequence has been repeated on three occasions, fueling the hope that the Pedregal team can achieve it in 2026.
Toluca was champion in 2003, Pumas in 2004; Toluca in 2008, Pumas in 2009; Toluca in 2010, Pumas in 2011. Now, with Toluca as the monarch in 2025, many are beginning to wonder: will 2026 be the year of the blue and gold return? 💛💙
