Alfonso Gonzalez’ hat trick helps Monterrey crush Leon

Monterrey completely dominated a very poor Leon yesterday night to get a 5-1 win at home. Monterrey took advantage of a terrible first half from the visitors and were then able to hold off a slight rally to get the victory in their best performance of the season. Leon wasted the momentum after last week’s last minute victory over America, failing to show up against Monterrey and suffering an embarrassing loss. They will need to bounce back next week when they return home to face Mazatlan, while Monterrey will travel to Aguascalientes where they will face Necaxa.

The game started with both teams coming out with their best players barring injuries.
