América Women (4) 1-1 (3) Tigres – América are champions! | OneFootball

América Femenil drew 1-1 with Tigres in a match they dominated throughout the 90 minutes, but that ultimately had to be decided on penalties.

This was the starting XI: Itzel Velasco, Kim Rodríguez, Isa Haas, Karen Luna, Jana Gutiérrez, Gabriela García, Nancy Antonio, Irene Guerrero, Scarlett Camberos, Montse Saldivar, and Geyse Ferreira.

11′ AMÉRICA GOAL – Irene Guerrero taps the ball in after a great assist from Geyse Ferreira.

It was a very positive start to the match for América, controlling the ball and the flow of the game, preventing their opponent from creating any dangerous chances on Itzel Velasco’s goal.

It was a first half in which there was only one team on the pitch; América Femenil created as many as three clear scoring chances, and even had a goal disallowed before halftime.

Geyse Ferreira picked up right where she left off last tournament, at an extraordinary level and doing whatever she wanted against the Tigres defense.

The start of the second half changed the pace of the match, allowing the opposition to begin getting closer to the goal defended by Itzel Velasco, with América unable to find any connection in attack.

73′ Substitutions – On: Priscila Da Silva and Mariela Ramos – Off: Montse Saldivar and Jana Gutiérrez.

It was not Montse Saldivar’s best match; the young América player was not sharp at all, and the only play where she managed to be accurate in front of goal ended up being ruled out for a prior handball.

América managed to regain control of the match, but their attacks depended entirely on what Geyse Ferreira was doing; Scarlett Camberos was not very involved.

88′ Tigres Goal – Ordoñez equalized with their first clear chance of the match. A defensive mistake allowed her to go through alone in front of goal.

Based on how the match played out, Las Águilas deserved to win it in the 90 minutes, but they played the second half a bit too comfortably, as if the second goal could come at any moment, and in the end Tigres equalized to send the match to penalties.

Penalty shootout:

América Femenil were crowned Campeón de Campeonas, claiming their third title of the year and the fifth in their history.
