America advances to La Liguillas’ semifinals! After facing off Pachuca for the second time, with a 1-0 loss, the team moves forward with a 3-2 lead on the scoreboard. With a 3-1 victory after the first game, we would think that Las Aguilas would have no problem in being victorious during the second game, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case.
The only goal scored during the game was that of Pachuca player, Nestor Vidrio at minute 37. Minutes later, Christian Benitez had the opportunity to tie the game, but he sent the ball off past the goal. The rest of the game was spent on America trying to tie the game, but it it was all in vain. The game ended with Pachuca winning the game, but was two goals short of moving on towards the semifinals.
America will move on to the semifinals and will face off against Monterrey this Wednesday at their own stadium. We hope that the team is able to get enough goals to move on to the Championship game! Til next time!
