Blue Cross sent an inspiring notice to his fans by winning the MX Super Cupin a match of medium quality that only detonated a few minutes, although in the end enough to satisfy the fans that filled the Dignity Health Sports Park.
After even 2-2 on the scoreboard in regulation timethe game went to penalties, where the cement team was more accurate to leave a 4-3 that will be remembered for the great failure of Julian Quinones in the tenth payment, when he had been one of the best players on the team throughout the last football year.
The meeting grew little by little
Although it improved with the passing of the minutes, the first half hour they offered corresponded to the preseasonwhere it is difficult to see loose teams and that show a form.
After seeing only muscle and little organization, the only keys that both teams found to score were the set piecesbeing the red and black the first to take advantage of it.
Already when the minute 41 passed Emanuel Aguilera took the ball to collect a free kick to get a blow who made a great curve before the impotence of Sebastián Jurado.
However, the red and blacks are still not fine and they mightn’t handle the advantage as they have become accustomed under the command of Diego Cocca, so they lost the advantage in the replacement of the first half.
In the action, Romero charged for the right, Camilo Vargas hesitated at the start and Santi Giménez appeared on the run to push the ball into the net with a header. The Colombian might do more to avoid 1-1.
just a great play
After the break, medium-quality football returned to the LA Galaxy field, although now it would be the cement workers who would score, supported by a great action from John Escobar.
The Paraguayan winger found a rebound inside the area and there he took out the magic to assist Angel Romero with three fingerswho completely alone stretched out to make it 2-1 with a chopped header.
However, the team from Guadalajara has learned not to give up, which helped them take control of the game until they tied at minute 90, thanks, in large part, to Vargas, who went on the attack to get a shot that was spit out by Jury, and that Julián Quiñones took advantage to put the 2-2 that he sent to penaltiescuriously where the final payment would fail.
