América now 3 for 3 in clásicos after 1-0 victory over Pumas

Club América had the opportunity to win all three clásicos this season and they did just that after defeating Pumas in a heavily contested match at the Estadio Azteca. Now both teams will have a short turn around as the Aguilas will face Pachuca on Tuesday night while Pumas welcome Querétaro at home.

While the Aguilas were the favorites to win, Pumas made it known early in the game that they would not go down easy. The first 10 minutes saw the visitors hold possession of the ball and whenever America attempted an attack, they were stopped in the midfield.
