Coach Antonio Ricardo Mohamed led Toluca in a 1-1 draw against Juárez in matchday 12 of the Apertura 2026, according to images published by Reuters. The match took place last Sunday, August 30, at the Nemesio Díez Stadium, with the home side looking to secure three points.
Toluca's equalizing goal came in the 67th minute from their Argentine forward, who finished a cross from the left flank. This point keeps Toluca in the playoff spots, four points behind the league leader. The information was originally reported by Reuters, which captured Mohamed's focus on the bench before kickoff.
Where does this leave Toluca in the standings?
With this result, Toluca now has 18 points and sits in seventh place in the standings. The team's record so far this tournament is five wins, three draws, and four losses. Their next outing is on Saturday, September 6, when they visit León at the Estadio Nou Camp, as listed on our fixtures page.
Defense has been a strong point, conceding only 14 goals, the fourth-best record in the league. However, the attack needs more efficiency, as the team's top scorer has five goals. The creative midfielder, a key piece in Mohamed's scheme, has provided four assists so far.
What does Antonio Mohamed bring to the team?
Antonio Ricardo Mohamed, 55, took charge of the club at the start of this season. His experience in Liga MX is extensive, having managed several of the league's most important teams. His playing style is characterized by offensive, possession-based football, always seeking the initiative on the pitch.
In the current squad, Mohamed has relied on players like the starting goalkeeper, who has kept four clean sheets. The typical lineup is based on a 4-3-3 formation, with wingers constantly looking for one-on-one situations. Detailed data for each player is available on our squad page.
What is the physical condition of the squad?
Ahead of the match against León, the medical team reports a clean bill of health with no serious injuries. Only two players are under observation for minor discomfort, but they are expected to be available for the weekend. This good health situation allows Mohamed to plan training with his entire core group.
Consistency in the starting eleven has been notable, with eight players starting over 80% of the matches played. This stability is key to cementing the coach's tactical ideas in the final stretch of the regular season. The team will seek its sixth win of the season on Saturday in Guanajuato.
