Voit has introduced a new match ball for Liga MX, Ascenso MX, and the Copa MX, which will be used during the Apertura 2017 seasons: the Lummo.
Voit is currently in negotiations with Liga MX to decide if they will also produce the official ball for the new Liga MX Femenil division.
The new @VoitFutbol Lummo will be used in Liga MX, Ascenso MX, and the Copa MX.
After a 2-2 draw with Dorados de Sinaloa, which gave Lobos BUAP a 3-2 aggregate victory in the Final por el Ascenso promotion playoff, the licántropos have earned promotion to Liga MX for the first time in their history.
Dorados were looking to overturn their first-leg deficit, and it look them less than a minute to tie the aggregate. Moisés Velasco sent in a corner kick that Francisco Canales failed to deal with and the ball nestled into the back of the net. 1-0 on the night and 1-1 on aggregate.
