UNAM were held to 1-1 draw by Monterrey down on Sunday at Estadio Olimpico Universitario. UNAM wanted to continue adding points following a disappointing 1-1 draw with Mazatlán in their previous game whilst Monterrey were hoping to increase their winning streak after back-to-back victories against Puebla and Querétaro. As it stands, UNAM and Monterrey currently occupy 9th and 3rd spots in the league, with 7 points and 12 points respectively after 6 matches.
UNAM started strong and were rewarded for their efforts, when Jero Rodriguez found the net in the 44th minute. However, their lead was short lived, as Nicolas Freire equalised for Monterrey just before halftime, to take a 1-1 lead into half time. The second part ended with little further action at either end and goalless.
Substitutions for UNAM included Efraín Velarde, Marco Garcia, Cesar Huerta and Diogo de Oliveira for Jero Rodriguez, Leonel Lopez, Gustavo Del Prete and Pablo Bennevendo, repectively. Monterrey brought on Arturo Gonzalez, Celso Ortiz, German Berterame, Cesar Montes and Sebastian Vegas, to replace Jesus Gallardo, Rodolfo Pizarro, Matias Kranevitter, Edson Gutierrez and Maximiliano Meza.
There were bookings for Leonel Lopez from UNAM. For Monterrey, Hector Moreno, Maximiliano Meza, Rogelio Funes Mori, Luis Romo, Stefan Medina and Erick Aguirre saw yellow.
UNAM will next play Puebla away, with Monterrey facing León at home.
