Mazatlán 1-5 América Femenil – Las Águilas cruise through a routine clash | OneFootball

América Femenil met expectations and defeated Mazatlán as visitors to close the regular phase with a victory.

Despite it being a routine match, Ángel Villacampa decided to field a lineup with many starters.

First Half:

A first half with many chances for América Femenil and absolute ball possession, but with no effectiveness in front of the goal.

At several moments, it was noticeable that the players themselves knew it was a routine game and they didn't show the intensity we've seen in other matches of this tournament.

Sarah Luebbert had the clearest chance in a one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper, but her shot went wide; it's clear she still needs to regain her football rhythm.

45′ Mazatlán Goal – A grave mistake by Annia Mejía who left the ball to Alday in front of Paños, and she finished excellently to open the score.

Second Half:

45′ Substitution – Out: Alondra Cabanillas – In: Montse Saldivar.

48′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Cross from Montse Saldivar that Kiana Palacios finishes.

56′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Cross from Sarah Luebbert that Montse Saldivar heads, and after a rebound off the post, the ball hits the rival goalkeeper and goes into the net.

63′ Substitutions – Out: Jana Gutiérrez and Kim Rodríguez – In: Mariela Ramos and Jordan Brewster.

69′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Montse Saldivar scores after an assist from Sarah Luebbert.

70′ Substitutions – Out: Bruna Vilamala and Nancy Antonio – In: Irene Guerrero and Arantza Segura.

It was only a matter of time before América's goals started to come; the dominance was absolute against opponents who only had one goal opportunity due to an Americanista defensive error.

77′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Stunning goal by Kiana Palacios from outside the box for 4-1.

90+’7′ – GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Kiana Palacios scores the fifth for the eagles.

América's next match will be against Rayadas in the quarterfinals with date and time to be determined.
