América 3-0 San Luis – Eagles stay top of the table | OneFootball

An América ‘B’ side thrashed Atlético de San Luis at home to remain atop the Apertura 2026 standings.

This was the starting XI: Fernando Tapia, Emilio Lara, Ramón Juárez, Miguel Vázquez, Dagoberto Espinoza, Alan Cervantes, Ícaro da Conceicao, Raphael Veiga, Diego Arriaga, Óscar Perea, and Henry Martín.

Even though Guillermo Almada decided to fully rotate the squad, the match started out very even, with América looking a bit more dominant and dangerous in the opposition box.

América looked shaky at the back, especially in the area occupied by Miguel Vázquez and Emilio Lara; opponents were getting in behind them very easily.

24′ América survives! – They once again get in behind América’s defense, Mora shoots in front of Tapia, but Ramón Juárez miraculously appeared to clear the shot off the goal line.

26′ AMÉRICA GOAL – A great strike from Raphael Veiga after an assist from Dagoberto Espinoza.

The first half was far from a good one for Las Águilas, especially defensively, where they couldn’t position themselves well and were allowing danger far too easily.

47′ Red card for Bambu! – San Luis center back committed a foul on Henry Martín and was booked, his second yellow of the match.

51′ AMÉRICA GOAL! – Óscar Perea scores his first Liga MX goal.

56′ Incredible miss by Henry! – A shot by Perea hits the post, the rebound falls to Henry Martín’s feet, but his shot goes completely wide.

60′ Substitutions – On: Brian Rodríguez and Erick Sánchez – Off: Óscar Perea and Ícaro da Conceicao.

65′ AMÉRICA GOAL – Diego Arriaga scores the team’s third with a great individual play.

71′ Substitutions – On: Alexis Gutiérrez and Patricio Salas – Off: Henry Martín and Rahpael Veiga.

75′ Substitution – On: Isaías Violante – Off: Diego Arriaga.

A very important win for Las Águilas in a match Guillermo Almada used to rest his regular starters, and in the end, the plan worked out perfectly.

América’s next match is away to Juárez on Friday, August 21.
