Liga MX Player of the Week: Ángel Mena

Club León’s Ángel Mena was named Liga Bancomer MX Player of the Week for the second time this season, this time for Jornada 12, by a poll of Liga MX English-language writers and broadcasters.

Mena had two goals in León’s 3-2 comeback win on Friday evening against Monarcas Morelia.

Morelia surprised all by leading 2-0 to start the game, but Leon managed to get a goal back before Mena put his cape on. After a handball from Alberto Acosta, a penalty was called in the 67th minute. Leon’s leading goalscorer stepped up to the plate and put the ball easily past Sebastian Sosa to tie things up.
