Guadalupe, N. L. - Guadalajara offered a solid performance at the Steel Giant to demolish the unbeaten Rayados by winning 2-0 in matchday 13 of the Clausura 2024 Tournament, taking their total to 19 points and putting them in the fight for a direct ticket to the Liguilla.
The team coached by Fernando Gago sought and gained possession of the ball, led the game on their terms, which made the Blue and Whites desperate, playing with one less player after 45 minutes, a situation that the Rebaño took advantage of in the second half and with a brilliant play by "Guti" managed to score with an own goal; in the final stretch, the local team lost another man, which favored the team from Guadalajara to manage the actions and Ricardo Marín sentenced the duel at 90'+2.
The goals:
71' Erick Gutiérrez masterfully filtered the ball to Cade Cowell, who shot with his right foot, Andrada rejected the ball, but to his misfortune, it hit Héctor Moreno, who ended up sending it into the net.
90'2 In a counterattack, Ricardo Marín received a pass from "Piojo" Alvarado, eluded Andrada outside the area, and, with the goal empty, sent the ball into the net to seal the win.
The first goal:
6' Luis Romo had the first shot on goal with a cross-shot that went just wide of the "Tala" goal.
12' CERCAAAA "Piojo" Alvarado received the ball in the box and half-volleyed toward a goal, but his shot went over the crossbar.
34' UUUUFFFF On a loose ball in the area, Germán Berterame managed to tap it straight to the base of the post.
