Leon goalkeeper Rodolfo Cota could not handle a cro s which he came out to snag, and that gave Rivero the opening he needed.Cruz Azul continue their hot streak, after winning their last four matches of the regular season.Leon thought they had a late penalty kick opportunity to equalize when the referee pointed to the spot for a hand ball deep in stoppage time. But the VAR stepped in, the referee had another look, and ultimately reversed the decision in a wild sequence.Toluca 3-0 JuarezJuarez were happy just to be in the postseason after sneaking in on the final day, but their season came to an end soon after.With the fewest goals scored of any liguilla team, the Bravos could not find the back of the net, while Camilo Sanvezzo, Carlos Gonzalez, and Marcel Ruiz were all on target for Toluca.Puebla 1-1 Chivas (5-4 on penalties)This was arguably the marquee matchup of the play-in round and it delivered, producing a 1-1 draw that featured a stoppage-time equalizer from Chivas substitute Carlos Cisneros.The match went to penalties, and the lone shootout mi s was from Jesus Angulo of Chivas, who had come into the match in the 88th minute and a sisted on the Cisneros equalizer. Twelve teams make the playoffs, with the top four seeds advancing directly to the quarterfinals. The other eight teams play a single- Lance McCullers Jersey elimination play-in round (the in Spanish). If there is a draw after 90 minutes in the round, the teams go directly to a penalty shootout.The four teams that survive the play-in roundface the top four seeds in the quarterfinals based on seeding, with the top seed (America) landing the lowest remaining seed from the play-in Jimmy Wynn Jersey round (Puebla), and so on.The quarterfinals are played over two legs, as is the remainder of the liguilla, including the final.The team that scores the most goals acro s each two-leg series advances. If teams are level on total goals after the second leg, the higher seed automatically advances in the quarters and semis. However, that rule disappears for the final. Extra time and penalties (if nece sary) would be used to determine a champion in the final.Play-in matches (Repechaje): Oct. 8-9(single elimination)Quarterfinals: Oct. 12-13 (1st leg) Oct. 15-16 (2nd leg)Semifinals: Oct. 19-20 (1st leg) Oct. 22-23 (2nd leg)Final: Oct. 27 (1st leg) Oct. 30 (2nd leg) TV channels: Univision, TUDN, UniMas, Telemundo, Universo, ESPN Deportes, FoxDeportesLive streaming: , ViX, ViX+,ESPN+, ESPN App, TelemundoDeportes.com, Fox Deportes appThe Liga MX 2022 Apertura season is carried by four major U.S. broadcast outlets: the Univision family of networks (including Univision, TUDN and UniMas),ESPN Deportes,Telemundo/Universo andFoxDeportes.All these Spanish-language channels , which offers a free trial.Most matches can also be streamedwith user authe
