Pumas added another inspiring victory to the repertoire when they got a late win at home against title candidates Monterrey with a 2-0 score line. The win was very inspiring partly due to the fact that Pumas went down to 10 players at halftime but were still able to defend against a Monterrey onslaught, shocking everyone with two goals in injury time to climb all the way to seventh place. Pumas will now travel north to face Atletico San Luis on Wednesday, while Monterrey also go north; back home, to face Atlas.
The first half started with both teams coming out with their best starting lineups.
