Overview
- The first leg in Tijuana is scheduled for 9 p.m. local time (11 p.m. Central), a slot that could push the finish into early Thursday.
- Publimetro and Bolavip report that Liga MX regulations contain no time-of-day restriction for under-18 players, so Mora can be selected.
- Article 178 of Mexico’s Federal Labor Law forbids minors from overtime and work on mandatory rest days and prescribes 200% pay if violated, a legal backdrop cited by the coverage.
- Outlets note precedent of Xolos youth teams playing at similar hours without reported sanctions, supporting expectations that Mora will play.
- El Imparcial attributes the unusual kickoff to a one-off schedule shuffle to separate major Mexico City games and manage venue constraints.
