Last Wednesday, May 15, 2024, at exactly 8:00 p.m., the Chivas Rayadas del Guadalajara They received a visit from Eagles of Americafor the match corresponding to the first leg of the semifinals for the Clausura 2024 tournament.
As expected, both teams took the field with modest expectations. Knowing that this story would be defined until Saturday, neither of them took too many risks and the game ended 0-0, on the Akron stadium field.
The second leg was played at the Coloso de Santa Úrsula, this Saturday, May 18, at exactly 8:00 p.m. For the azulcremas, who are led by André Jardine, it was enough to even draw to get into the final and continue with the dream of the two-time championship.
However, the memory of what they experienced a year ago was still present, when the Sacred Flock also left them out in the semi-finals, so they jumped onto the field determined to resolve, leaving nothing to speculation.
With a goal from Israel Reyes, the squad led by André Jardine defeated the Chivas Rayadas del Guadalajara 1-0, thus completing the Azulcremas’ pass to a new final for the Mexican championship.
To talk about Club América is to talk about the most winning team in the history of Mexican soccer. Who has achieved the most titles and the only one that is required, semester by semester, forms, and, above all, results.
They have won the Liga MX title fourteen times and have only lost six finals in their more than one hundred years of existence. In this article we list all the times that the azulcrema squad reached a final for the national championship.
América’s possible rivals for this final for the Mexican championship are Monterrey Soccer Club and the Blue Cross Celestial Machine. Against Rayados they already have a couple of outstanding debts; a Liga MX final and another CONCACAF Champions CUP final.
With Cruz Azul the story is the other way around. They have faced each other in two finals for the Mexican championship, and América won both. First in 2013, with the epic last-minute goal scored by Moisés Muñoz, and then in 2018, beating them 2-0 and taking the Olympic turn at the Azteca stadium.
