MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico's Atlas have hastily reinstated defender Leandro Cufre to face Guadalajara Chivas in their derby next weekend after having banned the former Argentina player at the weekend for seeking to have coach and compatriot Omar Asad sacked.

Cufre and Asad met at a board meeting late on Sunday to overcome their differences over the running of the team.
