Querétaro players involved in confrontation during Leagues Cup match against Seattle

During a Leagues Cup match at Lumen Field, a confrontation occurred between Querétaro FC and Seattle Sounders players. Querétaro midfielder Erik Dueñas collided with the Seattle bench while chasing a ball, leading to a confrontation with Seattle substitute goalkeeper Andrew Thomas. Despite shoving between players from both teams, the referee, Luis Santander, did not issue any cards, and the situation was eventually controlled.

Seattle Sounders held a 2-0 lead at the time of the incident, with goals from Sebastian Gomez and Danny Musovski. If the score remains unchanged, Querétaro faces elimination from the tournament. The team previously lost 2-0 to FC Dallas and would finish the group stage without points, unable to secure one of the four spots reserved for Liga MX clubs to advance to the quarterfinals.
