América aim to become the top winners of the Campeón de Campeones | OneFootball

This coming Sunday, the Águilas will be facing Toluca in a match for the Campeón de Campeones title.

The first time Club América competed for this trophy was in the 1953-54 season in a match against Club Marte, which they lost by the minimum difference at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes.

But just a year later (1954-55), the team led by the legendary Octavio Vial managed to lift this trophy by defeating Zacatepec in the final; once again at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes, now known as Estadio Azulcrema.

The second trophy came in the 1975-76 season; the azulcrema team defeated Tigres in the final with a score of 2-0 to claim the title at the Estadio Azteca.

The third and fourth championships came almost in consecutive years, first defeating Puebla in 1987-88 and then defeating Toluca in 1988-89. Jorge Vieira was the team’s coach for both trophies.

For the fifth trophy, the azulcremas faced Pumas in the 2004-05 season in a match that ended in victory with an aggregate score of 2-1. Mario Carrillo was coaching the Águilas.

The sixth came in 2018-2019 in a final against Tigres that ended in a goalless draw, but in the penalty shootout, the Águilas won 6-5 with Miguel Herrera on the bench.

And the most recent was in the 2023-2024 season; on this occasion, there was no actual match since they achieved the bicampeonato by defeating Cruz Azul in the final, so the trophy was automatically awarded to them.
