Marcel Alejandro Ruiz News: Scores off bench in win

Ruiz (undisclosed) scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Tigres.

Ruiz excelled in a backup role, finding the net through a right-footed strike in stoppage time against Tigres. After missing the Liga MX versus MLS All-Star Game due to a knock, Ruiz had his playing time managed in his return to league action, though he's usually a near-guaranteed starter in midfield. There have been plenty of rumors about him leaving for Europe or Brazil, but until any of those is confirmed, he'll likely take Hector Herrera's place in the initial lineup for future games.
