Outstanding performance
Querétaro•GoalkeeperGuadalajara dominated the ball and territory, racking up 74% possession, 23 shots, and 97 dangerous attacks, yet found themselves undone by a Querétaro side that made every visit forward count. Alí Ávila opened the scoring early after a set-piece scramble in the 12th minute, and Mateo Coronel doubled the lead in the 68th minute from another corner-created chance, both goals assisted by the tireless Enzo Daniel Gimenez. Despite Guadalajara's territorial control and a flurry of second-half substitutions in search of a way back, they managed just 3 shots on target compared to Querétaro's 6, highlighting a wasteful night in front of goal. For Querétaro, the win is a huge statement result away from home, while Guadalajara's inability to convert overwhelming dominance into goals will raise fresh questions about their form heading into the title race.
