Match recap: Santos Laguna 3, UNAM Pumas 0

Last week, Santos went down a player at home and lost, while Pumas took advantage of a shorthanded Juárez to win their opener. This week no one was sent off, and with even elevens for all ninety, Santos was able to grab a 3-0 win on the back of a Diego Medina brace.

The match started out with both teams buzzing about, but not really creating much. Pumas had a decent opportunity in the fifth minute when a ball was floated into the box and Carlos Acevedo collided with his defender while gathering the ball, however he was able to hang onto it and everyone was unhurt.
