The León Paradox: A Juggernaut with Something Missing in Attack

Although they slept at the top of the table on Friday night, León and coach Nacho Ambriz have plenty to think about heading into the second half of the regular season. A solid 2-0 road win in Aguascalientes reaffirmed their status as one of the title favorites, but their pretty patterns will not result in liguilla success unless they can become more effective in front of goal.

Despite all their talent, León have one of the worst offenses in the division. They have struck only eight times in as many matches, a far cry from the high-powered hijinks of previous campaigns.
