Guadalajara and Queretaro settled for a draw on a tense Sunday at the Akron Stadium, as both teams eyed important points on match day 5 of the Closure 2023 MX schedule. The game carried weight for the locals who hoped to climb the table and for the visitors who were chasing a rare away win in a season where results away from home have been scarce.
The fixture featured Chivas against Querétaro, a rival with a recent history of hard-fought clashes. The match delivered little in the way of early thrills, with both defenses holding firm and chances hard to come by. Yet the late stages delivered a twist that kept the fans on the edge of their seats. In a moment that highlighted the stubborn grit of Querétaro, Pablo Barrera, at 85 years old, connected with the ball after a setup from Miguel Jiménez to give the visiting side a surprising lead. The goal seemed to tilt the momentum in favor of the Gallos Blancos and sparked a renewed belief among their ranks.
Chivas, however, showed resilience. In a dramatic turn, Alejandro Mayorga found an equalizer in stoppage time, ensuring that the match finished 1-1 and denying Querétaro a crucial victory on the road. The late strike by Mayorga capped a tense contest and left both teams with reasons to reflect on missed opportunities as they headed back to the training grounds.
