José Castillo's own goal in the 41st minute extended the visitors' lead, leaving Chivas against the ropes with many doubts for the second half. In a match that had everything: errors, intensity, drama, and a late but effective reaction, Chivas managed to rescue a 2-2 draw against Pumas at Akron Stadium, after being behind on the scoreboard for most of the game. The university team surprised from the start with an orderly and direct approach, taking advantage of the spaces that Guadalajara left in its attempt to impose its conditions. Despite having more ball possession, the red-and-white team lacked clarity and punch in the final third of the field. The Ant to the Rescue of Chivas For the second half, the script changed. Guadalajara came out with a different attitude, pushed its lines up and began to generate more danger. Persistence finally paid off in the 70th minute when Armando González pulled one back with a shot that returned hope to the local fans. The goal ignited the game and the team's morale, which threw itself completely into the attack in the final minutes. When the clock already showed the 100th minute, a penalty was awarded in favor of the Flock, which Armando González duly converted to secure his brace and level the game. With this result, Chivas remains in the upper part of the table and earns a point that allows it to maintain its position in the fight for the lead, while Pumas missed the opportunity to climb important positions and get closer to the top of the tournament. It was in the 21st minute that Uriel Antuna opened the scoring with a goal that not only represented the advantage, but also the famous 'law of the ex-player', punishing his former team at a key moment of the match. Pumas did not lower the intensity and found a reward before the break.
