Chivas crush Santos, climb to the top of Group B in Copa por Mexico

Chivas continued their good start in the Copa por Mexico with a solid 4-0 win over Santos. The win places Chivas as the leader of Group B with six points, as they have won both of their matches. An early lead helped them massively as Santos tried to come back but couldn’t make up the difference. Chivas will now face Tigres on Thursday, while Santos plays a day later against Mazatlan.

The first half started with Chivas coming out with a completely different starting 11 than the one from their match against Mazatlan. Chivas struck early on when the ball fell into the path of Santiago Ormeño, who got a right footed shot past Santos’ goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo for the 1-0 lead.
