Mariano Pavone scored twice as Cruz Azul eased to a 3-0 Clausura win at 10-man Atlante on Sunday.

Atlante faced an uphill struggle when Joe Bizera was sent off in the 27th minute, and Pavone took full advantage to put his side ahead two minutes before the break.

He bagged his second 10 minutes into the second half, and the scoring was rounded off when Diego Jimenez scored an own goal nine minutes from the end.

In the day's other game, Unam Pumas were held to a goalless draw by struggling Leon.
