Chivas dominate and clinch semifinal spot with win against Mazatlan

Chivas clinched a spot in the semifinals of the Copa GNP por Mexico after defeating Mazatlan FC by a score of 3-1. The game had been marred by news that Mazatlan FC had three positive tests for COVID-19 after the last round of tests, when they had none coming into the tournament. There were rumors that the game was going to be called off, but it went through even though Mazatlan didn’t have their best lineup out there because of the missing players. The win places Chivas in the semifinals since with six points, since Tigres and Atlas both can’t reach them or get more points than them after Sunday’s game.
