A victory where the Eagles demonstrated their hierarchy of two-time champions to take advantage of the fact that Chivas could not take advantage of the great football moment they had at the start of the hostilities where it seemed they would run over the Coapa team.

The reality is that whoever forgives loses and in this sense The red and white team was unable to resolve at least three goal-scoring opportunities in the first 15 minutes of play and this eventually made them pay a high price in the rest of the match, since faced with the mistakes of Armando “La Hormiga” González, suddenly América found itself with the goal of Juárez in the 31st minute and from there it became stronger.

Even on the playing field, Chivas’ lack of offensive power The absence of Javier “Chicharito” Hernández, who arrived with the label of savior and great figure, but who in reality has been lacking both in the footballing and physical aspects with so many injuries, has increased.
