Puebla achieved an agonizing draw in its last game against Tijuana (3-3) with goals from Jozy Altidore at minute 85 and from Israel Reyes at 90+9′, who has them in sixth place and dreaming of getting into the top four that are straight to the quarterfinals.

Santos could not resist in its visit against Tigres, one of the leaders, and fell 2-0 giving a fight, especially in the second half when they had numerical superiority due to Rafael Carioca’s red card. As locals they have not lost in the tournament, winning 3 games and drawing the other, scoring 10 goals and conceding 4.
León, for its part, suffered a surprise defeat at home against Mazatlán (0-3) and have two falls in a row and 3 in their last 4 games. Very bad tournament for Renato Paiva’s team that in the last championship did not qualify for the playoffs and in this one, they are in danger of doing so again.
