Santos thought they had a lead, then had to battle back from behind but managed to win their fourth out of five at home by downing León 2-1. The 13 out of a possible 15 points at TSM as well as a game in hand on most teams has allowed Santos to remain within striking distance of a spot in the Liguilla. León meanwhile ends the evening in 12th place, fighting desperately to remain in the repechaje zone.
León started strong and wasted no time in going after Santos, playing a ball over the top just 40 seconds in that Carlos Acevedo had to come off of his line to smother.
