Match preview: Pumas vs. Monterrey

Pumas UNAM have begun the season in a way not many expected. After a poor showing in the preseason tournament Copa por México, barely garnering two points, they haven’t had much of a challenge in their first three regular season matchups, but have somehow managed to make these games extremely interesting and at times have even seemed intent on giving the games away. Despite that, they have yet to lose a game, having won two and drawn one.

In Week 1, after taking two different leads vs. an extremely limited Querétaro side, a childish own goal followed by a botched free-kick wall which allowed the ball to cruise right into the goal, Pumas were in serious self-destruction mode.
