Storm Delays Atlas vs. America Showdown in the MX League
As the excitement builds around the Opening 2025 of the MX League, the highly anticipated match between the red and black Atlas and the Eagles of America has been adversely affected by an unexpected electric storm. Originally scheduled for 7:05 p.m. on August 24, 2025, the match at the iconic Jalisco Stadium faced a significant delay due to adverse weather conditions. The match kickoff has been postponed to 8:00 p.m., confirmed by local authorities.
Posted on their verified account, the MX League on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) announced the rescheduling without noting an exact new kickoff time. They stated that the delay was prompted by the severe thunderstorm near the stadium, urging fans to be patient. “The game of Atlas vs. America at Jalisco Stadium has been delayed due to the thunderstorm around the stadium. In coordination with Civil Protection, the new start time will be reported,” they communicated on their platform.
Evidently, the inclement weather caught many off guard. As the clock approached the initial kickoff time of 7:00 p.m., fans were not only eager to see their players take to the field but were left disappointed as the teams were unable to commence their warm-up routines. It wasn’t until approximately 20 minutes after the scheduled time that the players could finally step onto the pitch for their essential pre-match preparations.
The storm had begun to unleash its fury soon after 5:00 p.m., drenching the Jalisco Stadium and altering the plans of Atlas fans who had arrived hoping to create a festive atmosphere. Many were prepared with fireworks and other celebratory paraphernalia, but the weather forced them to alter their plans significantly.
