A poor showing from Tijuana and a questionable goal by Jesus Isijara sees the defending Superlider at the bottom of the table, as Necaxa defeats Xolos 1-0. Tijuana played without any sense of discipline, both in terms of moving the ball and in terms of physical play. All too often, passes were more hopeful than purposeful and wound up going to an opponent. And bad fouls were in abundance from both team.
Xolos didn’t get off to a good start. The passing wasn’t crisp, and often the passes would be telegraphed. This allowed Rayos to bait Tijuana into making bad passes, which they’d turn back into the Xolos defense.
