Pumas UNAM is on top of the Mexican Primera Division standings after adding to crosstown rival America's misery.

A goal scored by Luis Fuentes at 10 minutes in the 2nd half of saturday's Clasico Capitalino stood up for a win 1-0 at Estadio Olimpico Universitario and boosted the Cats (6-3-2) from 5th in the standings past Jaguares, Guadalajara, Cruz Azul and Tigres.

In the past 3 weeks Pumas was 5-0-1 all competitions, after failing to win in its previous 7 matches.

Puma's lead on Jaguares is just a point, Tigres, Guadalajara and Cruz Azul they are just 1 point back, and 3 more teams are 1 point behind, and 5 more clubs are 2 or 3 points out of the top 8.
