Veracruz\|Tiburones Rojos de Veracruz]], a team that played in the [[Liga MX]].{{cite web \|last1=Marshall \|first1=Tom \|title='Worst club' Veracruz gets Liga MX boot amid financial struggles \|url=https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/37579494/worst-club-veracruz-gets-liga-mx-boot-amid-struggles \|website=ESPN \|access-date=1 July 2023 \|date=5 December 2019}} Later, some clubs emerged seeking to fill the void left by the original team, such as [[Atlético Veracruz]] and [[Club Veracruzano de Fútbol Tiburón]], however, both clubs failed in their attempt to attract fans from the city. On the other hand, a club called [[Racing de Veracruz]] was established in the third category of Mexican football; however, although that team has had a certain level of sporting success and attracting fans, it has not been able to use the city's main stadium, the [[Estadio Luis "Pirata" Fuente]], due to political conflicts between the club's ownership and the state government.{{cite web \|title=Descarta equipo Racing de Veracruz jugar en el “Pirata Fuente” como sede \|url=https://www.alcalorpolitico.com/informacion/descarta-equipo-racing-de-veracruz-jugar-en-el-pirata-fuente-como-sede-411620.html \|website=Al Calor Político \|access-date=24 April 2026 \|language=es \|date=28 August 2024}}		On 5 December 2019, the Veracruz metro area was left without representation in Mexican football after the dissolution of [[C.D.
