Tough afternoon for Chivas, beaten by Querétaro | OneFootball

Although Chivas took the initiative, created chances, and looked for the opposing goal throughout the match, they could not recover from the deficit and fell 2-0 to Querétaro this afternoon at Estadio AKRON. The rojiblanco side thus closed Matchday 10 of the 2026 Apertura with 18 points in the overall standings.

It was a difficult afternoon for the Rebaño, as they had to swim against the current from the opening minutes due to a mistake while playing out from the back that the opponent capitalized on. Without ever hanging their heads, with the good soccer that defines them and the mentality that has distinguished Gabriel Milito’s Chivas, the team pushed for the equalizer despite the opponent’s conservative approach.

The rojiblanco manager tried to change the game through substitutions at halftime, but a counterattack from Querétaro put the match away.

Guadalajara will not have Liga MX action next week due to the FIFA international break. However, they will play El Clásico de México in Oakland, California, next Sunday, October 4, at the Alameda County Coliseum as part of the Tour Rebaño 2026.

The goals

- Gallos opened the scoring in the 11th minute after a rojiblanco lapse while playing out from the back, which Ali Ávila finished off.- In the 67th minute, the visitors extended their lead on a counterattack finished by Mateo Coronel.

In the 19th minute, Gutiérrez drove forward at full speed through the middle and, upon reaching the edge of the box, fired a wicked shot that flashed just outside the post.- In the 33rd minute, Camberos received the ball alone outside the area on the left side and hit a low shot that Alison could only just stop.- In the 45+2nd minute, Hugo once again from the left beat two defenders and aimed a right-footed shot at the far post, but it went wide.- Castañeda again! In the 47th minute, with time and space, Kevin struck the ball with his right instep, sending it powerfully toward goal and forcing the keeper to push it out for a corner.- On the next play, Marín appeared at the back post to meet a cross played in behind, but Alison was fortunate to barely deflect the ball.- Then it was Romo in the 50th minute, with another thunderous shot from the edge of the box that forced the goalkeeper into a diving save.- In the 58th minute, after a good team move by the Rebaño,‘4K’ turned inside the area and fired a left-footed shot toward the near post that Alison managed to gather.- In the 62nd minute, Marín had equalized with a header in the six-yard box, but the referee disallowed the goal for a prior foul.- In the 80th minute, Jordan tried from long distance, but failed to get the right height on his shot.
