América 0-1 Atlas – Eagles beaten at the death | OneFootball

América drew 0-0 against Atlas in the close of the regular phase of Clausura 2026.

América’s lineup: Rodolfo Cota, Israel Reyes, Sebastián Cáceres, Miguel Vázquez, Kevin Álvarez, Cristian Borja, Alan Cervantes, Erick Sánchez, Raphael Veiga, Brian Rodríguez, and Alejandro Zendejas.

13′ América escapes! – González was completely through on goal, but a perfectly timed sliding tackle by Cristian Borja prevented him from finishing against Cota.

25′ América misses a penalty! – Raphael Veiga took the penalty straight down the middle and the goalkeeper guessed correctly and saved it. But the penalty should have been retaken since Camilo Vargas came off his line before Veiga’s shot.

It was a fairly tight first half, with few scoring chances and an América side that kept trying but was unable to break down the opposing defense.

45′ Substitution – Off: Cristian Borja – On: Patricio Salas.

60′ Substitution – Off: Raphael Veiga – On: Vinícius Lima

The second half was very similar to what we saw in the first; América had possession, looking for the opposing box without any success, while Atlas was content with the draw.

71′ Substitution – On: Henry Martín and Isaías Violante – Off: Alejandro Zendejas and Erick Sánchez.

79′ América goes close! – A powerful shot by Lima from outside the box goes just wide of the opposing goal.

86′ Substitution – On: José Zúñiga – Off: Brian Rodríguez.

América was better in the match, but they were completely ineffective, only managing two shots on target, one of them the penalty, so offensively the team offered very little or nothing at all.

And just when it seemed everything would end in a scoreless draw, Atlas got one after a mistake by Sebastián Cáceres and put it away.

With this result, América drops to eighth place in the table and will face Pumas in the Quarterfinals.
