Late goal gives Monterrey win over Pumas in first leg of Quarterfinal series.

Monterrey got a late goal that gave them a 1-0 victory over Pumas in the first leg of their Quarterfinal series. The controversial goal spoiled a very defensive Pumas plan who still is the closest score so far in all Quarterfinal series. A win by any score would give Pumas the ticket to the Semifinals in the return leg to be played on Sunday at 12:00 PM.

The 1st half started with Pumas coming out with a very defensive side with only Ignacio Pussetto up top. Monterrey came out with their usual side except without injured goalkeeper Esteban Andrada and suspended Lucas Ocampos.
