Tigres Femenil beat América Femenil 1-0 in the Apertura 2025 return leg final, securing the title with a 4-3 aggregate score. Diana Ordóñez scored the decisive goal in the 20th minute, while América played with one less after Nancy Antonio's expulsion. This victory marks Tigres' seventh championship, solidifying them as the league's most successful team.
The return leg final took place on November 23, 2025, at Estadio Universitario in San Nicolás de los Garza, Nuevo León, before about 40,000 fans. Tigres, coached by Pedro Martínez, overcame a 3-0 deficit from the first leg, tying 3-3 in that match before prevailing at home.
Tigres started with high pressure. In the 20th minute, Diana Ordóñez capitalized on an error by Annie Karich to score the 1-0 with a left-footed shot, her 16th goal of the tournament. América held possession in the first half (56-44) but lacked finishing, with Nancy Antonio hitting the crossbar in the 56th minute.
In the 58th minute, Antonio received a direct red card for a kick to Jenni Hermoso's face, confirmed by VAR, leaving América with 10 players. Tigres managed the game, though Ordóñez missed chances in the 68th and 74th minutes. Goalkeeper Sandra Paños made key saves in the 78th and 86th minutes, but Cecilia Santiago also rescued Tigres in the 79th.
Ángel Villacampa, América's coach, suffered his fifth final loss in the league. Tigres now has seven titles: Clausura 2018 and 2019, Guardianes 2020 and 2021, Apertura 2022 and 2023, and this Apertura 2025. Jennifer Hermoso, a key player, celebrated her first title in Mexico after seven tournaments: “Many were retiring me... but I always said I wouldn't leave Mexico without winning.” This championship underscores Tigres' dominance in Mexican women's soccer.
