When Charlyn Corral, forward of Pachuca Femenil smashed four times in a 5‑0 win over Club Necaxa Femenil on September 14, 2025, the league witnessed a historic milestone: she became the first player to tally 151 goals for a single club in Liga MX Femenil history.
The match unfolded at Estadio Hidalgo during Jornada 11 of the Apertura 2025Estadio Hidalgo. From the first whistle, Las Tuzas (Pachuca’s nickname) pressed forward with a vigor that left the visiting side scrambling.
Background: Corral’s Rise and Pachuca’s Title Chase
Corral’s career has been a study in consistency. After joining Pachuca in 2017, she gradually forged a reputation as a clinical finisher, earning the league’s top‑scorer title in the 2021‑22 season. Her 150‑goal mark, reached last year, placed her alongside Katty Martínez and Alicia Cervantes, who both hit the milestone while moving between clubs. What sets Corral apart is her loyalty—she has worn the Pachuca strip exclusively.
Entering Jornada 11, Pachuca sat second in the table, just three points behind the leaders. The team’s recent form had been a blend of tight defense and clinical attack, a formula that suited Corral’s poacher’s instinct.
The Match: Four Goals and a Record
Early pressure came from the back. Lateral defender Kenti Robles ripped a low drive that clanged off the post within the opening five minutes, a clear warning to Necaxa’s keeper. Ten minutes later, Corral’s first strike arrived—a thunderous volley from just outside the box that lodged in the top‑right corner.
The second came at the 23‑minute mark. A quick one‑two with midfielder María González freed Corral inside the six‑yard box; she slotted it low, making it 2‑0. The half‑hour whistle saw the score at 3‑0, with Corral completing her hat‑trick after a precise finish to the far post.
In the 42nd minute, she added a fourth, a tap‑in after a corner was bobbled by Necaxa’s defense. The crowd at Estadio Hidalgo erupted, recognizing that the tally was more than just a match‑winning haul—it was a record‑breaker.
By the final whistle, the scoreboard read 5‑0. The remaining goals came from a penalty converted by Laura Méndez and a swift counter‑attack finished by winger Ana Torres.
Reactions: Players, Coaches, and Fans
“Seeing Charlyn lift that fourth was surreal,” said Pachuca head coach Luis Hernández. “She’s coming back from surgery and still delivers at the highest level. This record belongs to her, but it also reflects our collective work.”
Necaxa’s captain Mariana López admitted the team was out‑classed. “We tried, but the opposition’s quality was evident. Corral’s performance sets a benchmark for all of us.”
Fans took to social media with a flood of hashtags, #Corral151 and #LasTuzasDominan, celebrating the achievement and the club’s position near the top of the table.
What the Record Means for Liga MX Femenil
The league, only a decade old, is still carving its identity. Corral’s feat adds a narrative of player loyalty that could influence contract negotiations and club branding. Analysts from FIFA Women’s Development Council note that milestones like this help attract sponsors and boost viewership.
Statistically, Corral’s 151 goals translate to an average of 0.84 goals per match over 180 appearances—a remarkable conversion rate that eclipses many male forwards in the league’s history.
Looking Ahead: Next Fixtures and Legacy
Pachuca’s next challenge is a home clash against Club América Femenil on September 21. The team will likely lean on Corral’s scoring touch as they aim to close the gap with the leaders.
Beyond the season, the record raises questions about longevity. At 30 years old, Corral has hinted she may consider a coaching role after retirement, a path that could keep her influence within Mexican women’s football for years to come.
