Who is the Chivas player to watch against Cibao? | OneFootball

This Thursday in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, Guadalajara returns to the international stage to play in the CONCACAF Champions Cup 2025. El Rebaño will begin its journey towards its third trophy in this competition in the same place it did in 2018, when it lifted its most recent continental title.

El Rebaño will be looking to take the lead in the series against Los Cibaeños from the first game and for this it is important that the team shows a good collective and individual performance. One of the elements that has achieved greater consistency and constancy in recent times has been Rubén González, who has been key in various situations.

We all know that the Chivas youth player is a tireless element in the team's midfield, as he has an outstanding ability to cover ground and position himself in the best possible place on the field, depending on the phase of the game. The 'Bear' usually plays mostly defensive duties, but when it comes to attacking, he also knows how to contribute from his position.

Undoubtedly, his strength in individual duels to block and recover the ball is his greatest virtue, although at the same time, he has the tranquility to choose the best passing option to give the Rebaño Sagrado a clear exit in the defense-attack transition.

The numbers of 'Oso' González in 2025

- 5 games played- 4 starts- 353 minutes played- 2 goal participations- 7 headers in own area- 13 balls recovered in the contest- 8 balls won in own area- 5 shots on goal- 29 balls recovered
