Liga MX Clausura Week 11: América win Clásico Nacional, Veracruz say bye-bye to Liga MX

Here are your five conclusions from the eleventh week of play in the 2019 Liga MX Clausura.

After a rapid start to his tenure with Pumas UNAM, the Universitarios have suddenly regressed back to reality under new coach Bruno Marioni. On Saturday, Pumas suffered their fourth straight game without a win in Liga MX, losing 1-0 to Puebla at the Estadio Cuauhtémoc to make it three defeats in their last four.

Not all has been bleak for the Universitarios, however, as Marioni’s men have forged a relatively easy path to the Copa MX Semifinals. With a place in the Liguilla rapidly looking out of the question for Pumas, the Mexico City side has turned its attention to the cup, where a Clásico Capitalino final could be in the cards if they manage to beat Juárez in two weeks.
