Dramatically and in a game that had eight goalsClub Pachuca lost to Santos, the thirteenth place of the Clausura 2023, which eliminated the champion and vacated the throne of monarch in Liga MX in a surprising way and in a penalty shootout.

The Warriors behaved as such, they broke the script of a duel they arrived as victims and after reacting to equalize the score four times, they took the game to the definition from the 11 stepsand there they dispatched the Hidalgo team, which came to this game as a clear favorite.

Although the Tuzos had possession of the ball, they never managed to have a strong control over the whole of Lagunawho with set pieces and aerial plays managed to get the local defense into trouble, which this Saturday did not have its best night.

Early in the game those led by Guillemo Almada, favorites on paper, they took the lead with a penalty taken by Chico Arango. It seemed that a win was coming for the Guerreros, who did not take long to respond and at minute 11 they leveled the board with a header from Harold Preciado.

The goal of the miracle

Pachuca did not want to waste time and at minute 24 they once again took the lead with a goal from Roberto de la Rosa, in a play that began with a poor clearance by the visiting goalkeeper. But one more time Santos did not take long to match the cards, this time with a header from Félix Torres from a corner kick.

Before the end of the first half, again the Tuzos left forward with a goal from Romario Ibarra. They went to rest and it seemed that the complementary part could be calmer for them, and so on until the 53rd minute, when Dedos López took a kick from outside the area that went into in the corner of Óscar Ustari’s goal.

But the reactions of both teams would not stop there, because already in compensation time, Erick Sánchez made it 4-3 and when everything pointed to the Tuzos taking the game, Matheus Doria pushed a ball that Ustari could not control in a distant shot and made it 4-4 to send the series to the definition of penalties.
