How did the Rojiblanca academy get on this weekend? | OneFootball

This weekend was painted Red-and-White! The U-21 and U-19 teams played Mexico’s Clásico as part of Matchday 9 of the Apertura 2026. Both squads left Coapa with all three points in the bag.

Meanwhile, the U-15, U-17, and Women’s U-19 teams had a bye this week, so they did not see action.

How did the Red-and-White sides earn their wins in Mexico’s Clásico?

U-21 (Men’s)

The U-21 side once again showed its strength in the Red-and-White Capital. This time, Guadalajara defeated the Azulcremas 1-2.

El Rebaño showed character and its Red-and-White DNA to come from behind. After going down early, the Red-and-White side never gave up and completed the comeback with a goal from Anwar Ben Rhouma from the penalty spot in the 35th minute and another from Diego González in the 88th.

With this goal, Ben Rhouma reached five goals in AP26 and remains Chivas’ top scorer and the second-highest scorer in the category.

In addition, with the result, the team coached by Luis Arce reached 15 points and sits in fifth place overall, with one match still to be played.

U-19 (Men’s)

The Red-and-White U-19 side also defeated its fiercest rival. In this category, Guadalajara won 0-1.

It was an even match, in which the intelligence to manage the key moments of the game ultimately made the difference. El Rebaño showed its character and found the goal in the 69th minute, when Carlos Bernal stepped up to score his first goal of the tournament and give all three points to Guadalajara.

With this result, the Red-and-White side recorded its third clean sheet and reached 15 points, moving into sixth place overall and into the qualification spots, still with one match pending.

Red-and-White note…

The Red-and-White Academy remains unbeaten against its fiercest rival in both circuits. The U-21 side has faced América five times, with a record of two wins and three draws. Let’s remember that a pair of those results came in the Grand Final of CL26, in which El Rebaño defeated the Azulcremas to claim the title.

For their part, the U-19 side also remains unbeaten, with two wins and three draws in the Regular Phase against the Azulcremas.
