Pasadena, California - Thousands of ChivaHermanos fans made El Clasico de Mexico at the Rose Bowl a huge event, as they put on a colorful show at the stadium, which, by the way, registered a historic attendance for a match between two Liga MX teams in the United States, with more than 86,000 people in the stands.
On the other hand, unfortunately, the result did not favor Chivas on the field, despite having generated several scoring options and being better on the field at the start of the match, they fell by 0-2.
The Rebaño's dangerous chances:
3' - From a corner kick on the left, 'Pollo' headed the ball wide.
26' - After a series of touches down the center, 'Pocho' was set up inside the box on the left and shot powerfully, but the goalkeeper blocked the shot.
27' - 'Piojo' sent in a cross from the right corner of the box that 'Pocho' headed, but the ball went just wide of the left post.
38' - 'Cone' advanced through the center and pulled the trigger, but Oscar Jiménez held on to the ball in two stages.
42' - 'Nene' sent a measured service into the area for 'Pocho' to head, but the ball went straight to the goalkeeper's position.
