Match Recap
Santos Laguna needed just three added minutes at the end of the first half to settle this Liga MX derby, with Francisco Villalba poking home the only goal in the 45+3rd minute to sink Pachuca 1-0. It's a rare bright spot for Santos, who sit 17th with just seven points from five games and a shaky WWLDL run, while Pachuca arrive in better shape at 11th on 12 points and a DWWDD stretch that had looked hard to crack. The head-to-head had been split evenly between these two, one win apiece in their last two meetings, and this result tips that ledger back in Santos's favor at home. Neither side has anyone near Joao Pedro Galvao's 25-goal haul atop the scoring charts, so this was always going to be decided by nerve rather than firepower, and Villalba supplied exactly that. Pachuca pushed for an equalizer that never came. Watch how Villalba's stoppage-time strike unfolds in the highlights below, and see just how close Pachuca came to snatching a share of the points.
