Newbies

particularities
Already the first match day, which was played on August 19, 1945, came up with some bangs: the reigning champions España lost at the start of the season, as in the previous two years, on their own place against a team from Orizaba , this time against Moctezuma with 4: 6th The upcoming champions Veracruz also started with a home defeat against the capital city club América (2: 3), which received more goals this season than in any other season. Atlante won 10-3 at CD Tampico and achieved the first double-digit victory in the history of the Primera División . Puebla FC won even more clearly on the same day , defeating CD Marte 8-0 .
On the second day of the match Moctezuma caused a stir, or rather their player Martín Cuburu , who scored all six goals in the 6-0 win against CF Monterrey . But it was to get worse for Monterrey. Three weeks later, the team was on their way to an away game at CD Oro when the bus in the town of San Juan de los Lagos, not far from Guadalajara , was involved in an accident and caught fire. Eight players suffered severe burns and two of them, Enrique Lizano and Guillermo Vidal, succumbed to serious injuries and died about three months later. Over the course of the season, Monterrey suffered a few bitter defeats, including three in double digits. They received their bitterest defeat on May 26, 1946 with 0:14 from the upcoming master Veracruz. At the end of the season, Monterrey finished last in the table with 133 goals conceded and withdrew voluntarily, because there were no relegated players at that time.
Play with the most goals
Most of the goals came in the matches between Veracruz and Monterrey (14-0) and Atlante and Monterrey (10-4). Only one less goal fell in the match between Tampico and Atlante, which ended 3:10.
