Pumas underestimated a Veracruz team that pounced on their opportunity to come out with huge three points in a 2-1 win on Wednesday. A terrible early 30 minutes for Pumas gave Veracruz all the opportunities they needed and Diego Chavez scored twice for a 2-0 lead. Pumas came back with a goal, but even when they improved in intensity, they were never able to crack a Veracruz team that knew what they were playing for.
Ex Pumas coach Guillermo Vasquez, had a plan against his ex team and Veracruz could have scored more goals and were deserved winners.
