América Seeks Early Kickoff To Keep Rayados Quarterfinal at Ciudad de los Deportes

Municipal restrictions near the Plaza de Toros leave the venue contingent on a start time that clears the sold-out Junior H show.

Overview

  • Reports indicate the second leg versus Monterrey is expected Sunday, November 30, at Ciudad de los Deportes with a kickoff before 17:00, likely around 16:00.
  • Junior H concerts at Plaza de Toros México on November 29–30 trigger rules that prohibit simultaneous mass events, with the bullring’s schedule taking precedence.
  • Club leadership has not issued an official statement, and internal reviews include moving the start earlier or, if required, shifting to an alternate stadium.
  • Local outlets cite TUDN in describing the early-start proposal as the leading workaround to allow both events without overlap.
  • There is recent precedent, as América played the Apertura 2024 final’s first leg in Puebla after a same-day Plaza de Toros event blocked use of Ciudad de los Deportes.
