Chivas delivers and clinches spot in the 2020 Guardianes Liguilla
Chivas improved its productivity in play-offs in the Liga BBVA MX after winning its third phase of five disputed after beating Necaxa 1-0 at Guadalajara Stadium and advancing to the Quarterfinals of the Guard1anes 2020 BBVA MX.
Jesús Angulo, who was a Rayos player in the Apertura 2009 and arrived at Chivas in the unfinished Clausura 2020, scored the only goal of the game at minute 54, enough to eliminate the team from Aguascalientes.
Jesús Angulo started Chivas’s orchestra of shots without direction, at the 17th minute. Although Jair Pereira collaborated so that the ball was finally deflected. Zaldívar joined, at the 24th after a shot after well-manufactured triangulation play, but without aiming at the goal.
‘Tiba’ Sepúlveda was close to sending the game into halftime with a Rojiblanca advantage Necaxa, but his shot crossed from the left crashed at the base of the second post that shook not only the stick but the team for being so close to the annotation and not taste it.
In the Second half, Angulo finally managed to send the ball to the back of the net defended by Luis Malagón. The tie was close five minutes later after Lucas Passerini leaked into the area and took a high shot that hit Raúl Gudiño’s face, but without consequences, except on the scoreboard, to keep 1-0 for El Rebaño. Now Chivas advances on and it is still undetermined who they will play in the next round, but just like that Necaxa’s season is over.
