Liga MX Apertura Quarterfinals: Monterrey flex their muscle, Club America outlast Cruz Azul

Here your five conclusions from Quarterfinals of the 2017 Liga MX Apertura.

Monterrey flex their muscle

From the start, this was always going to be the most lopsided of all four quarterfinal matchups. Atlas were lucky to even make the Liguilla, and from the eight teams in the “Fiesta Grande”, they were perhaps the one with the weakest backbone. As such, Monterrey had a field day, winning the first leg 2-1 and the second leg 4-1. Antonio “Turco” Mohamed’s men are simply rolling at the moment and they left no doubt behind as to why they are the favorites to win the title.
