Under 18
The Rebaño needed the win plus the extra point from the penalty shootout series to maintain their aspirations of qualifying and they did so, but now they must wait for the result of Querétaro, who face Pachuca this Sunday, to know if they will get their ticket to the Liguilla. For the moment they reached 33 points to the Gallos' 31 and moved into eighth place.
The goals:
- Enrique Ledesma opened the scoring via penalty kick at 38', as he shot powerfully to the left of goalkeeper García.
- The Rebaño widened the gap in the scoreboard at 46', when Gibrán Ortiz broke down the left, sent a diagonal that Ariel shot and the ball hit the post, but Eduardo Ochoa was alert to the rebound and punched the ball into the back of the visitors' goal.
- Chivas got the third goal at 56' with an own goal, after Mario Anaya headed the ball back to Abraham Rodríguez, but the ball was deflected by Abraham Rodríguez.
