Chivas had a big scare but were able to hold on to get a 3-2 victory over Puebla. Chivas was the better side and overly dominated at times but the final minutes, Puebla fought back and came very close to getting the tie. Chivas will have a tough visit next week to face Pachuca while Puebla will host Cruz Azul.
The 1st half started with the return of Javier Hernandez to the starting 11 after missing the last match because of injury. Chivas had a great chance when Hernandez made a pass to the path of Cade Cowell, who went on a 1 vs 1 but his right footed shot was blocked by Puebla’s goalkeeper Jesus Rodriguez.
