Now that La Fiera is officially out of the summer tournament, it’s a great time to bring up the topic of multi-club ownership in Liga MX.

A FIFA Club World Cup spot is on the line for MLS side LAFC and Liga MX’s Club América this spring. FIFA shared initial plans earlier in the year, but the one-game playoff became official this week after the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld Mexico’s Club Léon's disqualification.
