This time, Guadalajara rescued an agonizing draw at 1-1 against the San José Earthquakes in their debut; however, in the penalty shootout they fell 3-2. Roberto Alvarado and Cade Cowell failed to score proving the MLS team victorious.

Jeremy Ebobisse opened the scoring with a header inside the area. The American attacker appeared unmarked and made a powerful header to beat goalkeeper 'Tala' Rangel and break the score.

Chivas suffered to get the equializer

El Rebaño managed to balance the balance with the income of Roberto Alvarado and Fernando Beltrán. Without Javier 'Chicharito' Hernández and with a less than productive Ricardo Marín, the people of Guadalajara suffered again on American soil.

However, at minute 90+8, seconds from concluding the confrontation, 'Piojo' Alvarado rescued the tie and blew up at Levi's Stadium painted red and white, but it was not enough.

With this, Mexican teams already have three defeats in the Leagues Cup. In the first edition in 2023, Guadalajara remained in the Group Stage after two losses, against Cincinnati FC and Sporting Kansas City. The next match for Fernando Gago's team will be against the LA Galaxy, on Sunday, August 4, at the Dignity Health Sports Park, home of the Angelenos.
