Pumas 1-2 América Femenil – the Eagles keep up perfect start | OneFootball

América Femenil defeated Pumas 2-1 in what was the team’s weakest match of the season so far.

This was the starting XI: Itzel Velasco, Isa Haas, Karina Rodríguez, Kim Rodríguez, Jana Gutiérrez, Nancy Antonio, Gabriela García, Aylin Aviléz, Sarah Luebbert, Scarlett Camberos, and Geyse Ferreira.

17′ Pumas goal – Ribeiro opened the scoring after a shot hit the post and the rebound fell to her for the 1-0.

It was impossible to comment on the match during the first 30 minutes, as the broadcast failed and we could only watch the game through an image taken from behind the benches.

41′ AMÉRICA GOAL! – Geyse Ferreira equalized after an assist from Sarah Luebbert.

From the little that could be seen in this first half, we saw a very smart Pumas side in the opening 20 minutes, but after finding the first goal, they gave possession to América and little by little Las Águilas pushed their lines forward until they found the equalizer and even could have gone ahead, but Aylin Aviléz missed a clear chance just before the end of the first half.

63′ Substitution – On: Xcaret Pineda – Off: Aylin Aviléz.

65′ Casandra Montero of Pumas sent off for a second yellow card.

Irene Guerrero’s absence was very noticeable; neither Aylin nor Xcaret could take on her role of linking the midfield with the attack. Today the team looked very disjointed in those areas.

74′ Substitutions – On: Priscila da Silva and Karen Luna – Off: Sarah Luebbert and Karina Rodríguez

This was América’s worst match of the season so far: too many misplaced passes, little intensity, and no real connection within the team throughout the game; Pumas, with very little, caused problems for the team on several occasions.

89′ AMÉRICA GOAL – Geyse Ferreira completed her brace to turn the match around.

Las Águilas managed to keep their perfect run going after a pretty poor match, but the important thing is that despite that they still won, and now they need to fix some things because another performance like today’s cannot be repeated.

The next match will be at home against Tigres at the Estadio Azteca.
