Difficult Afternoon for Chivas, Who Fell to Querétaro
Despite the fact that Chivas took the initiative, created chances and constantly looked for the opponent's goal, they could not overcome the deficit and fell 2-0 to Querétaro this afternoon at Estadio AKRON . The Rojiblanco side thus finished Matchday 10 of the Apertura 2026 with 18 points in the overall standings.
It was a difficult afternoon for the Rebaño, as they had to battle from behind from the opening minutes after an error in buildup that the opposition knew how to capitalize on. Without ever hanging their heads, and with the good football that characterizes them and the mentality that has defined Gabriel Milito's Chivas, the team went in search of an equalizer despite the opponent's conservative approach.

The Rojiblanco manager looked to turn the match around with his halftime substitutions, but a Querétaro counterattack sealed the result.
