Day 3 of Mexican soccer left a good feeling, since despite the fact that there were not many goals, no match ended with a 0-0 score. The teams have already begun to show their strengths and weaknesses, and although none of them are in perfect form after three games, there are some that are performing better than the rest.
The collective performance goes hand in hand with the individual performance of the players, as they are the main protagonists, and in Day 3 of the Apertura 2022 there were many players who shone on the field in different ways.
After the end of the day, the Liga MX is given the task of presenting the ideal team, with the 11 elements that had great performances. This is the team of the Day 3 of Mexican Soccer.
Liga MX Ideal Team: The Ideal Team of the Week for Day 3 of the Apertura 2022
The goalkeeper chosen for this ideal team was Carlos Acevedo of Santos Laguna, who, despite allowing a goal in the 1-1 draw, saved several shots to help his team avoid losing that match.
The league chose four defenders to make the ideal XI, Diego de Buen (Puebla) and Néstor Vidrio (Mazatlán) appeared as central defenders thanks to their effective work to stop opponents, despite their teams conceding a goal in their respective matches.
At left back, Adrián Aldrete (Pumas) not only did a perfect job at the back, but also scored the winning goal for his team, which was one of the great goals of Day 3. The right back chosen is Gustavo Ferrareis (Puebla), who had an outstanding performance in his sector and provided an assist for the goal.
The midfield includes Raymundo Fulgencio (Tigres), Richard Sánchez (América), Jeremy Márquez (Atlas), and Aldo Rocha (Atlas). All of them were good at recovering and sharing the play, but the first three participated with a goal.
The best performing forward duo were Lucas Di Yorio (León) and Rogelio Funes Mori (Monterrey). Both scored in their weekend matches, but the Emerald’s player is also the tournament’s top scorer with four goals after scoring in each of the three matches played.
Every team has its coach, and for Day 3, the manager who employed the best strategy was the Argentine Diego Cocca, who gave two-time Mexican soccer champion Atlas its first victory of the campaign.
The activity will resume with Day 4, starting this Wednesday, July 20, and the players will probably continue to show their best qualities.
