MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Chile's Sebastian Gonzalez scored in injury time Tuesday to give the Atlante soccer club a 3-3 draw with Cruz Azul in Mexico's first-division.

The game had been postponed 10 days so that four Cruz Azul players could represent their countries in South America World Cup qualifying matches.

On Tuesday, Gonzalez headed in the final goal of the game with about one minute of injury time remaining.

Cruz Azul squandered a 3-1 lead late in the game.

Opening the scoring, Cesareo Victorino headed in the first goal for Cruz Azul in the 27th minute. Argentine Marcel Delgado blasted in a shot from long distance to make it 2-0.

Colombian Gabriel Rey responded for Atlante after 64 minutes, scoring on a header, only for Cruz Azul's Ivan Moreno to respond with a goal in the 72nd minute.

Atlante struck back in the 81st minute when Carlos Ramirez scored on a shot from right of the goal to set up the tying goal by Gonzalez.

The tie left Atlante in second place in Group 4, behind Irapuato. Cruz Azul trails the Tigers in Group 3.

Atlante played at home at the Technological University of Nezahualcoyotl.
