Pumas came in off a 3-3 draw with América that somehow got them through. Three days later they were beaten by their own defender's foot.
Oussama Idrissi hit it in the 37th minute. The shot took a touch off Nathanael da Silva and beat Keylor Navas. Pachuca will take that one without asking questions.
Pumas had more of the second half without much to show for it. Rubén Duarte got the best look in the 79th, saved by Carlos Moreno. In between, three Pumas yellows in ten minutes. Elías Montiel should have made it two for Pachuca in the 72nd and put directly to the keeper.
Eduardo Bauermann was sent off in the 89th minute for denying a clear chance.
One-nil into the second leg.
