Jorge Alejandro Rodriguez News: Active as substitute Saturday

Rodriguez (undisclosed) generated one cross (zero accurate) and one tackle in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Monterrey.

Rodriguez played the last 45 minutes in a difficult challenge given that his team was reduced to 10 men due to Jose Lozano's red card. Thus, the former Puebla man had to do defensive work in his first appearance for the Rojinegros. Having left a slight injury behind, the defender should have a chance to start at left wing-back while Lozano serves his ban on Aug. 9 against Pachuca, but perhaps only a very convincing display would allow him to retain the spot after that.
