VAR continues being staged in Liga MX as refs strip Puebla of victory

With the score knotted up at 1 in La Corregidora last night, Puebla found themsleves with a dangerous free kick in the 88th minute which could give them a go-ahead goal and lead them to a win they so desperately needed to get their season going again. MF Federico Mancuello fired off a difficult left-footed shot for keeper Aguerre, as it bounced right in front of him before he made a good diving save, deflecting the ball to his right side. Unfortunately for Aguerre, however, Maximiliano Araujo was waiting for the ball, and upon controlling it, fired off a left-footed shot himself which crept between the keeper’s right foot and the bar, finding its way to the back of the net.
