Tijuana, Baja California. - The Liguilla officially kicked off for the general leader of the U18 category, and this Wednesday Guadalajara visited Tijuana to face Xolos in the first leg of the Quarter-Finals of the Clausura 2024. The match lived up to expectations, as there were many dangerous opportunities, which ended up leaving a 2-2 score.
After this result, Chivas needs to win or draw on aggregate to advance to the next round, as the first tie-breaker criterion is the position in the table. The second leg will be played next Saturday at 11:30 a.m. on Field 2 at Verde Valle.
Goals
0-1: Chivas took the lead through Juan Pablo Uribe, who made a run into space and took advantage of a good line that was sent to him to control the ball and finish in front of the home goalkeeper.
0-2: El Rebaño extended its lead at 49' thanks to an own goal, which originated on the right flank, as after a great short combination, the Red and Whites put the ball into the box and an unexpected deflection left the Xolos goalkeeper with no chance.
1-2: At 55', Tijuana's Luis Valenzuela, who finished with his left foot a good collective play that the Borderers put together on the left flank, got closer to the scoreboard.
2-2: Joban González was in charge of equalizing the score at 69' after an offensive mistake by the Rebaño, which ended with a powerful shot by the Tijuana attacker.
