Saturday, April 20, Olympic University Stadium field. The UNAM Pumas They received a visit from Eagles of Americafor the match corresponding to matchday number sixteen of the Clausura 2024 tournament.
The azulcremas began by winning the match, with a goal by Henry Martín in the first half, which was, incidentally, goal number one hundred in his successful career defending the colors of the Águilas del América.
However, at minute thirty-nine Ulises Rivas made the game 1-1, and they went to half-time with the points distributed. For the second half, the university students detected that they could harm the Coapa team and fought until the end, finding, in the sixtieth minute, the winning goal, through the former American player Leo Suárez, who applied the law of the former against the bluecreams.
And although America is already in the quarterfinals and first place in the overall table is in their hands, the calendar ahead of them is not at all easy. And the last day of the Clausura 2024 tournament coincides with the round-trip duels of the CONCACAF Champions CUP semifinal, so André Jardine will have to find a way to perform on the international level without neglecting the local level.
The Eagles of America and the entire Puebla They have faced each other forty-five times in short tournaments. The azulcremas have twenty-two wins, sixteen draws and only seven losses. A very marked paternity of the people of the capital over the people of Puebla.
As América is already classified directly to the league, its next match in Liga MX will take place on Wednesday, May 8 or Thursday, May 9, which is when the first leg matches of the quarterfinals in the tournament will be played. Closing 2024.
