Santos Laguna vs Puebla

Santos Laguna claimed a much-needed 2-1 victory over Puebla at the Estadio Corona TSM on Sunday, picking up their first home win of the Clausura 2026. A clinical second-half burst from the hosts proved the difference on Matchday 12. Ezequiel Bullaude broke the deadlock in the 59th minute, finishing from the center of the box after a sharp Lucas Di Yorio assist on the counter. Puebla's evening went from bad to worse when Edgar Guerra saw red for violent conduct just two minutes later, and Aldo López made it 2-0 with a close-range strike in the 65th. Substitute Owen González pulled one back in the 73rd minute to set up a tense finale, but ten-man Puebla couldn't find an equalizer. It's only a second win of the campaign for bottom-of-the-table Santos Laguna, but their first home victory could be the spark they need. For Puebla, defeat and a red card make for a frustrating trip to Torreón.
