Rayados debut with new Liga MX rule | OneFootball

Rayados arrived in San Luis just over 12 hours before the match, taking advantage of the new Liga MX rule.

This rule removes the obligation to be in the host city 24 hours in advance, as was previously required.

The Monterrey team traveled on the same Friday morning to face Atlético de San Luis in Matchday 2, as the regulations only require being there eight hours before the start of the game. This match began at 9 PM.

Previously, teams had to gather a day before, which caused greater physical strain due to prolonged travel.

This change responds to requests from players and was agreed upon by the club owners.

With a distance of 519 kilometers between Monterrey and San Luis, the journey can be made in less than two hours by plane.

Thus, Rayados became the first team to apply this new regulatory provision.
