Reigning Liga MX champion Toluca overcame a two-goal deficit to defeat Santos Laguna 4–2 on Wednesday in an Apertura 2025 match that had been brought forward to Jornada 2. Playing at the Estadio Corona in Torreón, the hosts struck first through Ramiro Sordo and Alberto Ocejo, giving Santos a 2–0 lead despite Toluca’s early dominance of possession. Toluca’s response was led by Brazilian forward Helinho, who halved the margin before the break and converted a penalty shortly after the restart to level the score. The visitors then completed the turnaround with two late goals—capitalising on sustained pressure and a critical save by goalkeeper Hugo González that denied Santos an equaliser—sealing a 4–2 victory. The result keeps Toluca perfect after two matches, following its opening-day win against Necaxa, while Santos suffers its first loss of the campaign.
