Once once more, the first victory was lost to the Xolos de Tijuana, who seemed to finally win in Clausura 2024, but ended up being tied 2-2 by Santos Laguna in stoppage time.
Things are still not going well in Miguel Herrera’s team, who in 2024 has shown that he does not know how to maintain his advantages and loses them in the final part; This is what happened this Friday at the Caliente Stadium where he scored his eighth draw of the tournament.
Xolos and FC Juárez, the only ones still without winning
Xolos is, along with FC Juárez, the only two teams that have not won in this competition and are slowly moving away from the possibility of entering the fight for Play In.
Now the executioner was Ronaldo Prieto, who scored in the 94th minute so that Ignacio Ambriz’s Santos Laguna might add to their visit and further prolong the border agony.
On the field of the Caliente Stadium there were good approaches from both teams, the Xolos starting with a header from Carlos González just in the 4th minute that passed by one side of Carlos Acevedo’s goal.
The Laguneros responded and at 14′, Jesús Ocejo shot from distance and the ball went past José Antonio Rodríguez’s goal.
The scoring opened in the same first half and reached the 27th minute through a long throw-in. Kevin Balanta tried to deflect in the area, but ended up assisting Aldo López, who made no mistake with a header in front of Rodríguez and made it 1 -0 in favor of Santos Laguna.
Even with the score once morest those from Tijuana they continued to lie in wait. Charly González hit the ball with a volley at 31′, however he once more put it on the side.
The locals closed the first half attacking, Christian Rivera kept the ball in a series of rebounds, hit it directly and a visiting player got in the way and deflected it in the 39th minute.
The second half began with a bang in favor of the Xolos; José Raúl Zúñiga, who had just entered, received the ball in the area, headed and chipped the ball so much that it ended up on the crossbar in the 47th minute.
The score reached 1-1 at 51′ on a corner kick taken by Efraín Álvarez, the ball reached González, but in the play it seemed that Acevedo sent it to save into his own goal and thus the Xolos were able to tie.
Rivera made another shot at 64′ that Acevedo saved and at 68′, Álvarez fell in the lagoon area in a play with Santiago Núñez that was marked as a penalty. Rivera took the ball and in the 70th minute he made no mistake to make it 2-1 in favor of Xolos.
Efraín Álvarez had the third when he received the ball, hit it crosswise in the area and put it on the side at 77′.
In the final part, Herrera readjusted his defense so as not to lose the advantage and it seemed that it would come out, but no, since at 94′, Prieto joined the attack, received a cross from Jordan Carrillo and deflected the ball to make it 2- 2 end.
