It seemed that Cruz Azul’s Celeste Machine would remain in a big way and as one of the favorites to win the Clausura 2022 tournament, not only because of the results, but also because of its style of play. However, despite the fact that his offensive proposal is ambitious, tonight against Santos Laguna, his flaws and the figure of Charles Acevedo They prevented them from adding three points and not only that, they ended up losing in a game in which it seemed that they had saved the tie.
SAVIOR! @AcevedoCarlos9 was vital in the victory of the Warriors. He made incredible saves that set the course of the game.
