América had to come from behind twice to rescue a two-goal draw against Toluca as visitors at the Nemesio Díez. Those led by Ignacio Ambriz began with good control against the Azulcrema who had to do their best to rescue the point and their second draw of the tournament without wins. It should be remembered that on the first day those led by Tano Ortiz did not go beyond a draw at the Azteca against Querétaro.

At minute 8 Carlos González placed the Red Devils up that they started the road on the right foot, just like the last semifinal day in which they left Club América out.

At minute 16 the Uruguayan Brian Rodríguez placed the tie for América who showed his reaction just eight minutes later in the Bombonera.

But at minute 23, Carlos Orrantia was going to show that the Red Devils were going with everything for a victory against the Eagles and thus placed the choriceros 2-1 ahead of the eleventh Americanista.

In the second half the game was very balanced, Toluca tried through Leo Fernández and Óscar Jiménez, on behalf of América, Álvaro Fidalgo and Diego Valdés tried to take the lead to take advantage.

However, at 82, Claudio Baeza pulled Diego Valdés’ shirt until he knocked him down after a free kick and that’s how it was generated. a maximum penalty that Henry Martín was going to collect with total dsitinction to beat the Brazilian goalkeeper Tiago Volpi and establish final equality.

In this way, América completed its second tie in the same number of games at the start of the Clausura Tournament.while the Red Devils added their first draw after the previous match against Atlas was suspended due to poor conditions at the Jalisco stadium.

Now América will have to face Puebla at the Azteca next Saturday, January 21 and there he will seek to add three after these two matches. For his part, the choricero cast will visit the Chivas de Guadalajara in one of the most attractive parties of the date.
