Pumas left without player doing post-match drug test

"Wait for me, guys! Guys?"

Pumas beat Cruz Azul 2-0 in the second leg of their Apertura quarterfinal on Saturday to advance on a 3-2 aggregate score. After the match, defender Marco Palacios was selected to perform a random drug test and while he was doing that, the rest of the team left without him.

According to Record, Palacios was able to depart the Estadio Azul before suffering the indignity of arranging for his own transportation. But the ride he caught was the club's equipment van, where I imagine he had to sit inside a laundry bag full of soiled kits.

Oddly enough, this is the exact premise for Home Alone 17.
