Accustomed to playing once a week since they haven't qualified for the Concacaf Champions League in a long time, Puebla had to manage to play three games in eight days for the Leagues Cup, in which they upset two MLS teams, advancing to the quarterfinals of the international cup. This represents an unexpected success for the team coached by Pablo Guede, who will have to make another long trip to Lumen Field on August 20th to face the Seattle Sounders at Lumen Field.

In the interim between the league phase and the Leagues Cup quarterfinals, Puebla returned to Mexico with a busy schedule, and at the Estadio Universitario, they fielded a mixed team without many of their starters against Tigres, and Puebla was thrashed in one of the worst defeats in their history; they lost 7-0 in Matchday 4 of the Liga MX. In that match for Puebla, not a single player earned a performance grade higher than 6.0; It was a poor performance by goalkeeper Iván Rodríguez, who only made one save in eight opportunities, and midfielder Gamarra was sent off with a double yellow card.

But Puebla was finally able to recover and returns to the Cuauhtémoc Stadium for their next match against Atlético San Luis, who also lost 2-1 to Cruz Azul on Matchday 4.
