📝 Santos see off Gallos, keep play-in hopes alive | OneFootball

Santos showed that they continue to improve in the tournament by decisively thrashing Querétaro at the close of Matchday 15 of the Apertura 2025, a result that catapulted them directly into the play-in spots.

With this vital victory, the Guerreros provisionally climbed to tenth place in the overall standings, the last spot that grants access to the play-in.

The match that will close out the round and determine the tenth position will be the clash between Atlético de San Luis and Necaxa. If the Potosinos are defeated, Santos Laguna will finish the round among the qualified teams, taking a crucial advantage in the final stretch of the tournament.

The Gallos, with two games left, have made things difficult for themselves and it seems they won't be among the top 10 teams in the tournament. For their part, Santos will have to keep adding points to keep alive the hopes of a fanbase that has suffered a lot during recent tournaments.
