Puebla vs Necaxa

Puebla and Necaxa played out a forgettable 0-0 draw at the Estadio Cuauhtémoc on Friday night, failing to produce a single goal in a Jornada 11 clash short on quality. Neither side showed enough in the final third to deserve all three points. Necaxa's Kevin Gutiérrez came closest to breaking the deadlock, rattling the post with a fierce drive from distance on 35 minutes. Earlier, the visitors had threatened when they worked a ball into the six-yard box on 12 minutes, only for Puebla's Daniel Gutiérrez to step in and clear the danger. Frustration boiled over as the game wore on, with Eduardo Navarro, Emilio Lara, and Danny Leyva all collecting yellow cards as challenges grew increasingly tasty. The stalemate leaves both sides in trouble. Puebla remain marooned in mid-table while Necaxa sit 16th with just 10 points from 11 games, their Clausura campaign going from bad to worse.
