San Luis were first into the book when Rafael Nicolas Llorente Sanz saw yellow at 13'51'', and Carlos Rodriguez was cautioned for Cruz Azul at 32'48''. The hosts then struck just before the interval through Sebastien Salles-Lamonge at 45'48'', with Roman Torres Acosta supplying the assist. Four minutes into the second half, Llorente Sanz finished from Leonardo Flores' pass to make it 2-0 and put San Luis firmly in control.
Cruz Azul responded with changes at 55', sending on Gabriel Fernandez, Luka Romero and Nicolas Ibanez, and the game swung quickly. A VAR review awarded the visitors a penalty at 61'30'', and Fernandez converted at 62'52'' to reduce the score. Robson Bambu was booked for San Luis at 74'43'' before the comeback was completed in the closing stages.
Jeremy Marquez dragged Cruz Azul level at 80'09'' from Romero's assist, then struck again on 90'00'' after Carlos Rodriguez teed him up. That late turn seals an important result for Cruz Azul, who sit sixth on six points after three matches, while San Luis are 15th with two points.
