They pressured and won a corner kick, and in the 47th minute it was Hugo Rodrígiez putting his head through a corner kick into the back of the net. Santos came out in the second half and started out with the same intensity. The half drew to a close with Santos holding a deserved lead. It was close, but the ruling was correct. Santos looked to have scored in the 39th when Correa got a ball and hit it past Jurado, but the goal was nullified as it looked like Correa was offside when Brunetta hit the initial shot that was blocked by the defense. The Cruz Azul players were incensed, claiming the ball had fully crossed the line before being cleared but no on-field VAR review was conducted and play continued. Three minutes later Acevedo made a fantastic diving stop on a Nacho Rivero header on a corner kick, swatting the ball out and hitting it off of the post. Replays showed Antuna may have been offside, but it would have been too close for comfort. He hit a powerful shot inside of the box that smashed off of the underside of the bar and bounced out, much to the relief of the crowd and goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo. In the 26th minute Brunetta had a golden opportunity to double the lead when a ball was deflected up into the air and out toward him, but his volley went well over the net and into the crowd.Ĭruz Azul almost equalized in the 31st minute when former Santos forward Uriel Antuna got a great ball over the top to beat the trap and go in on goal.

The possession eventually evened out, with both teams inhabiting a very Zen space simultaneously having possession and not having it. There was a bit of controversy in the seventh minute when José Joaquín “Shaggy” Rodríguez went in hard on Javier Correa, but it looked worse in real time than it did on the replay and referee Oscar Macías Romo kept his cards in his pocket. While Santos started the match looking better in possession, Cruz Azul had the first chance at goal in the fifth minute when Ignacio “Nacho” Rivero teed up a shot from distance, however it didn’t curl enough and went just wide of the net. The four goal win was the biggest margin of victory since they beat Tijuana with a similar 4-0 score back on March 13. Santos dominated almost the entire game, and a three goal flurry to start the second half secured their second straight win and propelled them all the way into fourth place with a game in hand on most teams.
