Liga MX final shifts in Cruz Azul's favor after Mateus Uribe injury

Was it his knee? His ankle? Both?

Whatever it was, it wasn't good. Mateus Uribe had to leave the field in the 57th minute and immediately was taken out of the stadium. First it looked like he was heading for the ambulance, later he ended up leaving in a private car. Either way, he's off to the hospital and the chances he plays in Sunday's second leg of the Liga MX final are next to zero.

That's why despite a scoreless draw in the first leg, the balance of the series has shifted in favor of Cruz Azul.
