Like their Tuesday game against Queretaro, Chivas had another goalkeeper mistake that resulted in a goal and they also were failing to take advantage of being up a player for large part of the game. This time however Chivas got their second goal, although it was in the last play of the game. The win is a huge boost for Chivas, who will now travel with a win to Mexico City to face their biggest rival America in the biggest game of the year in Liga MX. Necaxa meanwhile suffers another setback, although they had done a good defensive job and were minutes away from getting a tie against Chivas even when they were down to 10 players since the first half.
