The Azteca stadium witnessed the debut of América in the Closing Tournament, always a favorite team in Mexico and which ended up losing a draw against the Gallos Blancos del Querétaroa team that is also the worst rated in the tournament despite having 11 reinforcements.
At the beginning of the game it seemed that everything would be positive for an America that began dominating at willHowever, Querétaro gradually established itself in the game and in fact they were the first to manage to take a shot through Sepúlveda, who feinted and took a powerful shot that passed over Jiménez’s goal.
Cabecita Rodríguez was very insinuated by América and by the Gallos Blancos Madueña almost managed to score against the hosts in a game that ended up complicating those led by Tano Ortiz.
At 45 Alejandro Zendejas managed to raise the Azteca fans with a goal that despite being celebrated and shouted ended up being annulled by the VAR and lowering the emotions of the cream-blue box that saw how the first half was leaving equal to one goal.
In the second half the Eagles were going to try but Alcalá would end up being a fundamental factor for those led by the Argentine Mauro Gerk. It should be noted that Jiménez, the América goalkeeper, also had important interventions for América and frustrating occasions for a Querétaro that even dared to try.
Finally, América put all their artillery on the pitch, but Querétaro’s defensive wall prevented the Águilas from scoring their first three points of the tournament.
