کروز آسول مقابل تولوکا

Cruz Azul and Toluca served up one of the games of the Apertura season at Estadio Banorte, with the hosts twice needing a response just to salvage a 3-3 draw after Toluca stormed back from two goals down. The standout moment came in the fifth minute of stoppage time, when Gabriel Fernández struck again to deny Toluca a shock win in Mexico City. Cruz Azul looked in control after Nicolás Ibáñez opened the scoring in the 7th minute and Fernández doubled the lead in the 38th, sending the hosts in 2-0 up at the break. Toluca flipped the script after halftime: Helinho converted a 55th-minute penalty, and Alexis Vega leveled a minute later before putting the visitors ahead in the 78th minute. Fernández completed his brace deep into added time to rescue the point. Several players were booked on both sides, and Toluca boss Antonio Mohamed picked up a yellow for dissent. The draw keeps Cruz Azul unbeaten at home but exposes late-game fragility, while Toluca leave Mexico City frustrated after surrendering a two-goal deficit only to lose the lead themselves in the dying minutes.
