Match recap: Santos Laguna 3, FC Juárez 2

A bit of a wild game that started with an own goal and ended with Carlos Acevedo making two huge saves late to preserve another home win for Santos. In between were goals from youth, goals from veterans, and a late penalty that threw what had seemed a certain win into doubt for Los Guerreros.

The game got off to a quick yet bizarre start when in the second minute Juárez defender Pol García passed the ball back toward goalkeeper Enrique Palos. Palos went to stop the ball but inexplicably missed and the ball rolled into the back of the net.
