It wasn’t the prettiest effort, but Monterrey got a convincing 3-0 victory over Cruz Azul to grab their ticket to the Semifinals. After a scoreless draw in the first leg, an early goal allowed Monterrey to sit back and handle Cruz Azul. With a very defensive display Rayados were able to stop Cruz Azul from scoring, and with late goals they settled the affair. Monterrey will now wait to see who they face in the Semis where they will once again travel in the first leg and then have the definitive match at home.
The first half started with both teams making changes from the first leg with Monterrey getting Rodolfo Pizarro into the starting eleven, while Cruz Azul got Angel Romero and Cristian Tabo from the start while Michael Estrada started over the injured Gonzalo Carneiro, although he was able to make it to the bench.
