The 2026 Leagues Cup match involving Pumas has been suspended, according to a breaking report from TV Azteca published on Friday, August 7. The broadcaster did not provide additional details in its initial alert.
The suspension follows a separate development in the same tournament. ESPN México reports that Pumas were eliminated from the Leagues Cup after a loss to Cincinnati. Mediotiempo also covered the early exit, noting the defeat came against the same opponent.
Telemundo added that Pumas, along with Pachuca and Atlas, were knocked out of the competition after suffering their second consecutive loss. The three clubs failed to advance past the group stage.
Récord quoted Pumas coach Esteban Solari after the elimination. He said the result could have been different and that playing at home carries weight, according to the outlet. The quote suggests the team felt the absence of home advantage in the decisive match.
The suspension reported by TV Azteca and the elimination reported by other outlets appear to be related to the same fixture, though the exact reason for the stoppage was not disclosed in the available material. No rescheduling information or further match details have been published yet.
What to watch next: Whether TV Azteca or the Leagues Cup organizers release a statement explaining the suspension and any implications for the tournament schedule.
