In a thrilling encounter at Estadio Alfonso Lastras Ramírez, Necaxa edged past Atletico San Luis with a dramatic 4-3 victory that felt more like a rollercoaster than a football match. The scoreline suggests chaos, and indeed, both teams provided just that, with tension palpable as they grappled for crucial points in their precarious positions in Liga MX's Apertura.

The evening began with Atletico San Luis, who had recently found their stride with two consecutive wins, hoping to capitalize on their burgeoning confidence. João Pedro Galvão, the standout striker, who had struck gold in previous matches, delivered once again, netting a goal early in the second half in the 53rd minute to give the hosts a glimmer of hope. However, Necaxa responded swiftly, with Tomás Badaloni equalizing just six minutes later, showcasing the visitors' resilience despite their struggles this season.

Within moments, Galvão doubled down, scoring his second just three minutes thereafter, sending the home fans into a frenzy and putting San Luis ahead 2-1. But the drama was only beginning. In a match where every moment felt like a potential turning point, Sébastien Salles-Lamonge added to the action for San Luis, making it 3-1 in the 68th minute, seemingly giving the home side a comfortable cushion.

Yet, in a turn of events that would leave any spectator breathless, Necaxa refused to back down. Kevin Rosero pulled one back in the 74th minute, igniting a resurgence that would define the closing minutes of the match. With the clock ticking down, it was Diber Cambindo who delivered the final blow, scoring in the dying moments-his effort completing the comeback and securing a vital three points for Necaxa, whose season had been marred by inconsistency.

This result puts Atletico San Luis in 11th with 16 points, while Necaxa, now 17th, glimpses a lifeline with a total of 10 points. Both teams entered the match desperate for points in a fight to avoid relegation-the stakes never higher, the margins never thinner. San Luis, buoyed by a two-goal lead, now faces questions about their defensive frailties that were exposed all too easily. Meanwhile, Necaxa may find renewed confidence from this victory, a beacon of hope in what has been a dark season.

Looking ahead, Atletico San Luis must regroup quickly, as they cling to the mid-table, while Necaxa will hope to build on this momentum, knowing the fight for survival is far from over.
