Pumas recovered from the defeat that América gave them in their debut in the 2023 Opening of the MX Women’s League and beat Atlas 4-1 on the second date of this tournament.
With two minutes left on the clock, the felines opened the scoring with a shot from outside the area by Dinora Garza, so they were already beginning to give “brushstrokes” of what was to come next.
However, the Red and Black still brought fuel to try to even the situation. In a great play between Paola García and Fabiola Ibarra the tie fell to six, which was well defined by Maritza Maldonado in what meant her first goal with Atlas and the score 1-1.

The opportunity for Pumas to retake the advantage came at minute 10, the maximum penalty was decreed after a contact from the captain Karen García on Aerial Chavalin. From the penalty mark, Marylín Díaz collected with a powerful shot that hit the post and made it 2-1 for Pumas after 12 minutes of play.
The felines increased the advantage after half an hour of play, Dania Padilla turned the ball on her right and beat goalkeeper Camila Vázquez for the 3-1 with which they eventually went to rest.
Not even 10 minutes had passed in the second half when, at 55′, Paola Chavero nailed the fourth university score with a powerful shot after defender Norma Hernández’s attempted rebound.
The modifications in the approach allowed the Rojinegras to stop the offensive momentum of Pumas, minimizing the attacks on goal. The most dangerous was Desirée Monsiváis, historic scorer of the Women’s MX, in the final stretch in a cross shot that the new red and black goalkeeper correctly deflected.
Pumas added his first three points of the tournament and embittered the debut of Roberto Medina in front of the Atlas Red and Black.
