In this Liga MX encounter, Club Necaxa edged out Puebla FC with a narrow 1-0 victory. The pivotal moment came just before halftime when Necaxa capitalized on a defensive lapse by Puebla to score the match's only goal at 43 minutes. This was a well-timed strike that followed Puebla's first yellow card, perhaps indicating a slight loss of focus in the home team's defense after the card was issued.

Puebla struggled to break through Necaxa’s resolute defense, as Necaxa effectively minimized the home team's offensive threats. Despite having more corner kicks (3 compared to Necaxa’s 2), Puebla was unable to convert these set pieces into scoring opportunities. In terms of maintaining discipline, however, Puebla had a marginally higher lack of discipline, with two yellow cards compared to Necaxa's single caution, affecting their second-half momentum.

Necaxa's solid game management stood out, as they maintained composure and avoided offsides entirely. Meanwhile, Puebla was caught offside once, hinting at their difficulty to penetrate the away side's organized backline. Puebla’s inability to generate clear chances or capitalize on set-pieces ultimately played a significant role in their defeat, while Necaxa’s efficiency and compact defending led them to secure all three points from this match.
