Cruz Azul gets hard fought victory over Chivas to remain on top of standings.

In a lively match, Cruz Azul was able to defeat Chivas by a 1-0 score in a victory that keeps the team in first place in Liga MX. For a second consecutive Saturday, Chivas lost a 1-0 match in Estadio Azul, after losing in that same stadium against Club America by that same score. Cruz Azul was only slightly better and a tie might have been the fair result but they have the victory that keeps them in first. Cruz Azul will hope to keep that spot when they travel to face Pachuca on Saturday while Chivas will have a tough home match against Monterrey.
