Time to Read: 2 minute
An unusual own goal by Miguel Herrera's Tijuana ended up becoming the blooper of the day of the Liga MX Apertura Tournament and would also result in Puebla's second consecutive victory.
The departure of Fernando Arce from Puebla has turned out much better than expected, La Franja now knows how to win games and also scores goals. Proof of this was the match against the Xolos de Tijuana in which they ended up winning comfortably with a score of 3-0, but They also scored the third goal by a former player on their team through an own goal that became the blooper of the week.
After putting almost nine men into their own field, the Tijuana Xolos did not know how to correctly defend a ball that would end up slipping through as if it were a game of billiards. In the end it was an own goal by the former Puebla, Lucas Cavallini, who did not specify the former's law but rather ended up favoring his previous club.
The play went viral on the internet and received hundreds of comments in a tone of mockery against Cavallini and also buried the possibilities of those led by Miguel Herrera, a coach who does not get the Tijuana compass and that sounds strong to become the fourth coach fired so far in the 2023 Apertura Tournament of the Liga MX.
A foul by Godinez was the start of everything, later Diego de Buen took a low free kick, which passed through several legs of the Xolos as if it were a game of billiards or a game of table tennis, between so much bounce, It was finally the unfortunate leg of Lucas Cavallini who ended up putting the ball into the back of the goal.
Puebla came out of its bad streak and added its second consecutive victory, in addition they are located in box number 13, leaving the last three places in which Arce kept them, and now they have a record of two victories, one draw and four defeats. For its part, Tijuana registered its fifth fall in a row counting the defeats in the Leagues Cup, and in the Liga MX they drop to 16th place with one win, two draws and three losses.
