Just after that action, Mauro Guadarrama appeared with a spectacular header in the six-yard box that went slightly wide of Humberto Hernández's goal.

Professor Luis Arce entered Adán Zaragoza in the 70th minute, replacing another Cancun native, Mauro Guadarrama.

With motivation and adrenaline at their peak, the Iguanas made the equalizer effective thanks to the Colombian, José Rodríguez.

The home team adjusted their lines in their quest to achieve victory. At 77', the African, Jean Unjanque, Carlos Prieto and Andrés Iniestra took the places of Johan Alonzo, Jonathan Hernández and Paul Uscanga, respectively.
