Chivas wins the Copa del Bienestar by defeating Mineros de Zacatecas

Chivas remains undefeated in preseason . Guadalajara was crowned champion of the Copa del Bienestar after defeating Mineros de Zacatecas 3-2 at Carlos Vega Villalba Stadium.

The team led by Gabriel Milito remains undefeated in preparation games for the 2025 Apertura Tournament , earning its fifth consecutive victory and winning both preseason tournaments.

The first goal of the match came from a free kick by Erick Gutiérrez , who, with a masterful shot to the near post, hung the ball in the corner to make it 0-1 and bring the fans who gathered at the Carlos Vega Villalba Stadium to their feet.

Minutes later, Chivas scored their second goal of the night after Alan Pulido was brought down inside the box, leading to a penalty awarded to Guadalajara. The penalty was well executed by the Rojiblanco striker, making the score 2-0.

Mineros de Zacatecas came from behind in the game and shortened the gap through Sergio de los Ríos , who won a high corner kick and put the ball away to get his team back into the fight and go into the break with the score at 1-2.

Already in the second half, the home side leveled the score after a great collective play by Jonathan Martínez took advantage of the Chivas defensive line's lack of attention to score to surprise everyone with a 2-2 scoreline.

When it seemed that the duel would be decided by a penalty shootout, an error in the exit of Mineros was taken advantage of by the red and white team, so Teun Wilke , with great strength, overcame the rival defense and, with a cross shot, made it 2-3 to seal Guadalajara's victory on the scoreboard .
