Chivas defeated Necaxa 2-0 in their second game in preparation for the Clausura 2023, from which they will be able to draw several conclusions, both individually and collectively. The match against the team from Aguascalientes took place this Thursday at Verde Valle and consisted of three 45-minute halves.
Veljko Paunovic made use of a number of different players against Aguascalientes, as he continues his search for a complete understanding of the game's idea. Pauno' also had the task of testing Luis Fernando Puente, who despite not having been in the work phase at Isla Navidad, is also on the radar of the First Team.
Which was the highlight of the match?
Undoubtedly, what stood out most was the use of fixed tactics, as Chivas controlled every situation and also scored one of the goals with a prefabricated set piece.
Guadalajara generated multiple scoring chances, but what stood out the most in this exercise was the organization with and without the ball, which made the team from Guadalajara look very organized. In addition, Necaxa found it difficult to flow with the ball due to the constant pressure on the part of the Rebaño Sagrado.
The winning goals:
- The Rebaño's first goal came at 25' of the third half through Santiago Ormeño, who, after a corner kick taken by Ronaldo Cisneros, headed the ball past the Necaxista goalkeeper.
- Guadalajara scored the second thanks to Zahid Muñoz, who drove the ball down the left flank, latched on to the ball and facing 2, fired a shot towards the near post.
