Atletico San Luis shock Leon to qualify for the Liguilla

Atletico San Luis struck at the right time to get their first win in Leon in the repechaje by a 3-1 score. Leon was the heavy favorite to qualify to the Liguilla days after booking their ticket to the CONCACAF Champions League Final, but were surprised by a lively San Luis coupled by some terrible mistakes on defense that ended their campaign early. Atletico San Luis will now face Club America in the Quarterfinals of the Clausura 2023 tournament, and they should be even more favored to defeat San Luis than Leon was.

The first half started with San Luis missing their regular goalkeeper Marcelo Barovero, having Andres Sanchez instead.
