Santos Laguna started the Apertura 2025 on the right foot by thrashing Pumas 3-0 at the TSM Corona.

Despite the low attendance, the Guerreros showed a renewed side under the leadership of Francisco Rodríguez.

The first goal came in the 15th minute after high pressure from Aldo López, who stole the ball and, seeing goalkeeper Rodrigo Parra off his line, beat him with a chipped shot. Pumas, with a young squad and eight absences, showed little response.

In the second half, Santos kept up the pressure and capitalized on another mistake by Parra: as he tried to clear the ball, he was caught off guard by Ramiro Sordo, who made it 2-0. The university defense couldn’t find a way to stop the home team.

Near the end of the match, Cristian Dájome broke down the right and sealed the 3-0 score with a cross shot. Santos starts with authority, while Pumas will have to make adjustments after a disappointing debut.
