Leon's Diego Novaretti had a Sunday to forget. Novaretti's side lost their Clausura semi-final match against Pachuca, 2-1, and that wasn't even the half of it. Look how Pachuca's first goal came about.

Yikes. That looked more like pin-ball than soccer. Luckily for Leon, Elias Hernandez was on hand to recoup some of their dignity.

Also luckily (maybe) for Novaretti, he probably doesn't remember his own-goal because later in the game Hirving Lozano kneed him in the face and knocked him out.

"Adding insult to injury" is a dumb phrase, we think, but Lozano did that after knocking Novaretti out when he scored Pachuca's winning goal.

Did we mention this was one of the biggest games of the year in Liga MX? God this league is fun.
