Match recap: Guadalajara 1, Santos Laguna 0

Whether or not this match should have happened in light of the events earlier in the evening in Querétaro can (and perhaps should) be debated. The match between Chivas and Santos however was played as scheduled, with Chivas picking up a 1-0 win.

Neither team looked particularly sharp in the opening minutes. Chivas had an opportunity in the seventh minute when Cristian “Chicote” Calderón was played in but his resulting shot went well wide of the net. Both teams were able to settle into a bit of a rhythm, with Chivas tending to hold possession more while Santos defended and tried to get the ball forward quickly when in possession.
