Pumas wasted a great opportunity to get to the post season and ended up being eliminated by losing to their biggest rival, Club America. Pumas wasted numerous chances in a game where they dominated, but the awful play of their forwards condemned them. Pumas also wasted that every result on Saturday that benefit them with Queretaro, Tijuana, and Mazatlan all losing, meaning they would have qualified to the repechaje with a win. They failed to do so against a Club America side that looked to be thinking more about their midweek matchup against Portland. Pumas thus bows out a season after getting to the final while America will look at Portland as they qualify to the Liguilla and will thus have a bye this week while the repechaje is being played.
