Liga MX Femenil triumphed over the NWSL this weekend, as Mexico’s Club América downed Gotham and Washington en route to the 2026 Concacaf W Champions Cup title.
After dismantling Gotham 4-1 on Wednesday, América faced the Spirit in Saturday’s continental final. The Mexican side built on an intense attacking output to secure the 5-3 win.
Club América forward Scarlett Camberos won Player of the Tournament. She scored four goals in two games — including the championship’s final strike.
"It's been a great experience for the team," said Washington head coach Adrián González.
"It's always hard, because you put a lot of effort… I couldn't be prouder. I think we are going to learn from this and I am sure that we are gonna keep getting in finals and for sure we will win finals in the future."
