After two consecutive defeats as a visitor, Atlante was reunited with its fans and with the victory by beating the Venados 2-0, a result that has allowed it to regain the leadership of the Liga Expansión MX after 10 games.
The Iron Colts were the ones who looked for the goal from the beginning, because before 10 minutes they generated three options in the rival goal, including a cross shot by Fernando Ramirez that Víctor Alcaráz deflected with his leg.
The Barça insistence continued with mid-distance shots from Diego Cruz and Pecas González that passed open.
Daniel Lajud, the key to Atlante
Once again, Lebanese striker Daniel Lajud was key to opening the scoreboard at the Ciudad de los Deportes Stadium. In the first instance at minute 26 when he first hit her with the inside of his left foot and placed it in the corner; while two minutes later after Armando Escobar’s shot that the goalkeeper released, Lajud took advantage of the rebound to increase the advantage.
The hosts still had one last shot before the break with Hobbit Bermúdez’s shot that was looking for the angle and that passed very close to the goalkeeper’s post.
For the complementary part, Mérida was encouraged to go to the front of the attack and on a couple of occasions praised the figure of Humberto Hernández, who saved his goal on several occasions. One of them in the 59th minute when Luis Calzadilla drove from midfield and entered the big area, although he missed the one-on-one against “Gansito.”
As the minutes passed, the intensity of Rafael Fernández’s team decreased and allowed the Barça team to control the actions of the match.
What’s next for Atlante and Venados?
After this result, Atlante regained the overall lead with 18 points and the following week they will host Tapatío; while Venados stayed in tenth position with 12 points and on Matchday 11 they will host Tepatitlán.
