Later, the feline team scored again with a trick play where the quarterback scored once again and extended their lead on the scoreboard, although they missed the extra point (7-16). The Pumas made their presence felt again when Jerónimo Arzate intercepted one of Randall Mendoza's passes and took it to the end zone. The two-point conversion left a score of 7-24 in favor of the visitors.

The Águilas decided to bring in Sergio Bringas as quarterback. With nine seconds left in the game, Bringas connected with Sergio Gutiérrez to make the score more respectable with 14-24.
