Santos ends October on a high note, thrashing FC Juárez 5-1 on the back of a brace by Juan Brunetta and an all-around good performance. Harold Preciado got his league-leading tenth goal and Juan Brunetta’s brace propelled Santos back into a repechaje position, sitting in eleventh place with just one Week 14 match left to go at the time of this writing.
The match started out rather slowly, with neither team getting much in the way of looks at goal. Duván Vergara had a shot near target in the sixth minute, but the attempt wasn’t troubling Alfredo Talavera at all.
