América Femenil 0-2 Chivas – The Águilas in free fall | OneFootball

America Femenil records their third league match without a victory, falling 0-2 to Chivas at home.

First half:

The match started with a more insistent America seeking the opponent's goal, while Chivas was on the lookout for any mistake to find a counterattack.

23′ Chivas Goal - Castro manages to shake off Arantza's mark and is left alone on the edge of the penalty area to define with a right shot to the corner.

Very imprecise America in this first half; they tried from both sides, but neither Scarlett nor Montse were fine, the ball was lost very easily and they were not able to generate danger in the opponent's area. To this we must add the apathy of the team, at times it seemed like we were watching a preseason match.

45′ Chivas Goal - Castro is left completely alone in front of Paños and defines for the 0-2. Arantza enabled so it was not offside.

The team was not able to generate a single dangerous play in Chivas' area during this first half.

Second half:

45′ Substitutions - Out: Kim Rodriguez and Arantza Segura - In: Jordan Brewster and Bruna Vilamala.

Forced by the score against them, America threw everything forward and at times dominated the match with several consecutive goal attempts.

71′ Substitution - Out: Nancy Antonio - In: Alexa Soto.

Chivas was smart in this second half, they locked themselves in their area and when they felt a lot of pressure from America, they wasted time pretending an injury to slow down the pace of the azulcremas.

82′ America is robbed of a goal - Irene Guerrero's shot hits the post, bounces inside the goal to then go out, and the referee decided not to validate the goal. It should be noted that there is no VAR.

The team's recent level is worrying, they started the tournament very well with a perfect pace, but they have gone three league matches without winning and now a key match is coming.

America's next match is one of the most important of the season, they host Pachuca in the third round of the Concacaf W and they have the obligation to win to stay alive in the competition.
