Artesanos Metepec claimed a 3-2 victory over KDM in the Apertura fifth round of the Premier League Serie A on 27 September 2026. The visitors had already entered the fixture sitting top of the table with four wins from four, while their hosts held third place after three victories and one draw. By then the match was shaping up as a genuine test for both sides.
KDM struck first when they found the net in the twenty-first minute, taking an early lead against the league leaders. The goal gave the home side something to build on, but Artesanos Metepec were not deterred for long. To be fair, the visitors had shown consistency all season and were not the type to fold after conceding first.
What followed was a rapid shift in momentum. Artesanos Metepec pulled level in the fifty-second minute, then took the lead with a second goal just one minute later. KDM responded quickly, equalising again in the sixtieth minute, but the visitors refused to let the match slip away. And here's the thing about such exchanges — momentum swings like these often decide whether a game ends in a draw or a result.
We had tipped guests to win this fixture, with 41 per cent confidence, and the pattern held. The turning point came in the eighty-third minute when a red card altered the balance entirely. KDM were reduced to ten men at a crucial stage, and Artesanos Metepec knew the moment was theirs to take.
The visitors did not waste it. In the ninety-second minute of added time they sealed the win with a fifth goal of the match, extending their unbeaten run to five games. KDM had held firm for most of the contest, but the late dismissal cost them dearly.
The result means Artesanos Metepec remain top of the table with thirteen points from four matches, while KDM drop to third with ten points after three wins and one draw. The visitors kept their perfect record intact, and the home side will need to regroup quickly if they are to maintain their challenge. This was a match decided by three or four moments, nothing more, nothing less.
