The Clausura MX 2024 Matchday 8 saw its end, and the teams at the top failed to land three points, thus giving América and Monterrey plenty of ground to recover in the fight for the first seed. Cruz Azul saw defeat in yet another “Clásico Joven,” while Pachuca got a tie with Necaxa, a rival that has been such a headache this season that is the only team undefeated.
Lower in the table is Tigres, who is falling more in the table and should recover quickly to fight for the top four, while Chivas recovered a little after an unexpected beating of the high-flying Pumas.

Juarez may have spent too much time giving their respects to Diego “Puma” Chavez, and Monterrey decided to spoil their party. The visiting team decided not to only take the victory in this clash, but to make a statement out of it.
The now-placed team on the scoreboard managed to score 3 goals to seal the victory and keep their opponents at the bottom place with a masterclass in offense during the second half of the match.
That should give them excellent momentum as they are still able to regain the top of the board before matchday 9 finishes.

Tigres was unable to land the victory against an Atlas team whose defense became unbreakable during the 2nd half of the match.
However, that didn’t stop Andre Pierre-Gignac from scoring his 202nd goal during the first half, at the 37th-minute mark.
Jeremy Marquez did not think twice at the start of the second half to score a goal to equalize the scores, and the rest of the work was at the hands of the defense, which managed to keep things even until the end of the match.

Chivas got back on track after going through a pair of matches without finding a victory, and it was an excellent time for their crowd to enjoy.
The Guadalajara team not only managed to get a spectacular 3 – 1 victory over a strong team in Pumas, but they also debuted Javier “El Chicharito” Hernandez back into their outfit.
With the former star of the team back, and their momentum improving, Chivas got a breath of fresh air in this match and are looking to continue on their path.

America managed to halt the current leader of the scoreboard, not only preventing them from increasing a gap at the top but also reaching closer to the top of the board themselves.
Both squads came to the match with opposite momentums. In the end, La Maquina, which despite the defeat remains the overall leader of the tournament, saw its streak of consecutive victories stopped, while the Águilas were reunited with victory in the championship thanks to a single goal that awarded them the victory.
