Liga MX Apertura Week 11: Gudiño snatches all the headlines after Clásico Nacional performance

Here are your five conclusions from the eleventh week of play in the 2018 Liga MX Apertura.

After 11 weeks, Atlas get first win of the season

It’s never pretty when it comes to Atlas, but on Friday, the Rojinegros notched their first win of the season after defeating Toluca 2-0 at the Estadio Jalisco. It took them 11 weeks and a half-empty stadium, but they got the job done against a Toluca that team that played most of the match with ten men. Albeit controversially, it was Rubens Sambueza who got sent off for the Diablos Rojos, and although this was only his first red card of the season, it severely conditioned a Toluca side that had entered the match with four straight wins across all competitions.
