Juarez City Monterrey didn’t mind the Braves playing for their fans again after a year, and they emerged determined to spoil the party for FC Juárez, who won 6-1 last night at the Benito Juárez Stadium in a corresponding match without much trouble. day 9 of the Clausura 2021 of the MX League.
The last time the Juarenses played with an audience in the stands, they were also knocked off, but on March 8, 2020, the score was 4-1 in favor of the Panzas Verdes del León.
If the 4-0 defeat to Puebla by coach Luis Fernando Tena was considered the worst game of the current Braves tournament, besides being embarrassing, last night could mean one of the last in which he sits on Juarense’s bench.
The local noise didn’t get tired of repeating to people last night not to get up from their seats, but with the performance the Braves showed on the field, the last thing the fans thought was get up from their seats, if anything left the stadium full of shame.
From minute 63, the audience could no longer cope with the bad actions of the Braves and the classic ‘ole!’ every time the visitors took one or more passes.
From the first whistle, Monterrey was more offensive and made the defense look bad for the Braves, who couldn’t find a way to stop the visiting team’s attacks, to the point that they had already crashed two balls after two minutes of play. in the crossbar, and in minutes 6 and 10 goalkeeper Enrique Palos saved FC Juárez, first with a deflection from below and then by taking a clear goal from Vincent Janssen in the area.
So much was the pitcher to the water that in minute 14, Monterrey’s first goal came via Janssen, who took advantage of the local defense’s many failures by simply pushing the ball to the back of the nets.
Five minutes later, it was Arturo González who took advantage of how disoriented the Juarense rear looked and went into the large area like a knife to butter to shoot Palos.
It was then that the fans began to despair at their team and in addition to some booing, there was also the cry ‘the game has started’ with the intention of the Bravos players getting into the game.
With the 2-0 in favor, Monterrey pulled the lines back a bit and allowed the frontier team to gradually generate more goals.
The reward for Bravos came at minute 34 when striker Darío Lezcano entered the center of the large area, firing and firing goalkeeper Hugo González, who managed to deflect the ball a little, but not enough to avoid scoring.
However, when the first minute of the second half barely got underway, Rogelio Funes cleared Mori Palos to put the 3-1 that already looked tough when considering a possible comeback. Not happy about that, Janssen ventured his luck from outside the large area to shoot Enrique Palos again, who just remained as an ivory statue.
The fifth goal came on minute 71 when Funes Mori ended a serve with a popcorn they gave him like a hand, while José Alvarado didn’t touch his heart to shoot Palos and make the final 6-1.
