Chivas left it for the last play of the game to grab a 1-0 victory over Cruz Azul. In a very even match that had very few scoring moments, Chivas were able to grab the late winner that guarantees them a place in the liguilla. Meanwhile, Cruz Azul are all but eliminated after failing to get a point. Chivas will travel to Mexico City to close out the regular season against Pumas while Cruz Azul close out against Puebla at home.
The game started with the surprise that Raul Martinez kept his place in the starting 11 even with the return of Antonio Briseño and the fact he made a foul that allowed Querétaro to get a PK and score their only goal in Chivas’ 2-1 victory over them on Tuesday.
