LIGA MX
Which teams have scored most goals so far in Liga MX Clausura 2023?
With six matchdays played in the Clausura 2023, we take a look at the most lethal attacks in the Liga MX.
After six rounds of the Liga MX Clausura 2023 tournament, Club América and Pachuca boast the most fearsome attacks in the competition: both top the scoring charts with 14 goals each.
América began their campaign with a scoreless stalemate with Querétaro, but have since netted twice each in high-scoring draws with Toluca, Puebla and Santos; thrashed Mazatlán 6-0 on matchday four; and earned a 2-1 victory over Necaxa on matchday six.
Fernando Ortiz’s forward line has been spearheaded by the regular season’s leading marksman, seven-goal Henry Martín.
Meanwhile, Pachuca opened up with a 5-1 thumping of Puebla, then went down 4-1 to Tigres. A week later, Los Tuzos beat Juárez by the same scoreline on matchday three. That handsome win was followed by 2-1 and 1-0 victories over Necaxa and León, respectively, before a 1-1 draw with Chivas last time out.
Goal-shy Cruz Azul sack Gutiérrez
At the other end of the scale, Cruz Azul have mustered just four goals - and, with the nine-time Mexican champions sitting second bottom after a 3-1 defeat to Toluca at the weekend, Raúl Gutiérrez was fired as head coach on Monday. Three-time Liga MX winner Antonio Mohamed is among those being tipped to take over.
Cruz Azul share the same meagre goals-for column as Querétaro and Tijuana, who are also outside of the playoff spots as things stand.
