The albiverdes went into the break with the minimum advantage in a great collective move that ended up embedding Sofía Varela in the net, with a shot placed at the base of the left post defended by the goalkeeper, Alejandra Gutiérrez, at 39′.
Minutes passed and the pack couldn’t find a way to match the cards until a distant shot from Daniela Espinosa caught the goalkeeper, Hannia de Avila, in a bad save, and in this way those led by Juan Romo entered the game on 71′.
The great goal from the former América player raised the spirit of the Xolas, who cornered the Laguneras in the last quarter of an hour to find a way to turn the game around with the push of Renae Cuéllar in a play against the left wing .
Tijuana attacked with four soccer players. Paola Villamizar watched the scene and realized that ‘Dani’ Espinosa was coming from behind, so she touched the ball but ended up swinging, however, a pass went to Mailin Orozco who tried to define but the defense took the ball off the line and the flagrant shot from the captain would arrive to celebrate the lapidary 2-1 and her goal 76 with the Xolas shirt in the regular phase.
