TOLUCA, Mexico (Interstat) — Substitute Enner Valencia scored a second-half equalizer as Toluca rallied for a 2-2 draw with Pachuca in a Liga MX match Sunday at Estadio Nemesio Díez.

Pachuca took the lead with first-half goals from defender Jesús Gallardo and Toluca forward Paulinho. Valencia, who entered the match as a substitute, then scored twice to salvage the draw for the home side. The result defied pregame projections that heavily favored Toluca. The physical match featured seven yellow cards and a red card shown to Pachuca’s Alán Bautista in the 76th minute. Both clubs open their Liga MX campaigns with a draw.
