Benito Juárez and Stadium Operator Agree on 'Estadio Seguro,' Clearing América to Host 7 Matches With Fans

Legal and political disputes persist despite the venue’s conditional reopening under a new safety protocol.

Overview

  • Authorities confirmed that four women’s and three men’s Liga MX fixtures, including the Sept. 13 Clásico Nacional, may proceed with public attendance subject to ongoing inspections.
  • Operativo Ladrillera remains in force, with the stadium operator handling access, security and logistics inside the venue while the alcaldía and SSC manage the external perimeter, traffic control and Protección Civil services.
  • The Aug. 30 América vs. Pachuca match was ordered behind closed doors after municipal officials said club security exceeded its authority and impeded a neighbor seeking medical attention.
  • Club América outlined refunds for the closed-door game, with automatic returns for card purchases beginning Sept. 3 and in-person cash reimbursements at Taquilla 15 during set hours.
  • Parallel actions continue as Mayor Luis Mendoza threatens a defamation case against journalist David Faitelson, Movimiento Ciudadano files an internal-control complaint, and América’s legal team assesses MXN 12–14 million in losses with possible remedies.
