But focused on his team for León vs. Querétaro, The Little Prince scored a great goal from a direct free kick in the 89th minute to close the 4-0 that Ángel Estrada started at 35′ and continued by Luciano Cabral, at 70′; and Diego Hernández, at 77′.
It was Andrés Guardado‘s first goal since his return to the Liga MX and with the León shirt, since he had not scored in the Mexican League since the Clausura 2007 when he was a player for Atlas and he did so in the Quarterfinals against América in the Jalisco Stadium.
It took 17 years for The Little Prince to rock the nets again in Mexican soccer, a goal that makes the emerald fans dream of qualifying for the Liguilla or Final Phase of the Apertura 2024 via Play-In.
With this result, León reached 13 points and was partially placed in 14th place, four behind América, which is in the last place that gives a pass to the Play-In of the tournament.
Los Esmeraldas still has mathematical possibilities with three games left and nine points to play. Querétaro, on the other hand, remained at 9 points and at the bottom of the standings, virtually eliminated from the Final Phase.
For the next date, León will visit Toluca, runner-up in the competition, while the Gallos return home to face Bravos.
