Puebla was able to come down from a 1-0 disadvantage to get a 2-1 victory in the first leg of their quarterfinal matchup against Leon. Leon got the lead after scoring the first goal of the Liguilla, but Puebla answered almost immediately and was able to get the victory. Leon are now forced to get a win at home in Sunday’s return leg against a Puebla side that looks inspired.
The first half started with Puebla coming out with the same lineup as they did against Chivas, but with defender Lucas Maia. Leon came with the best lineup they were used to.
