Atlas 2-3 América Femenil – Last-minute win for América | OneFootball

América Femenil won away against Atlas in a match they dominated at times, but due to mistakes almost let two points slip away.

First half:

7′ Close for América – Great shot by Bruna Vilamala inside the box, but the opposing goalkeeper made a spectacular save.

América was clearly superior with constant attacks on the rival goal, but lacked ideas when it came to breaking down a team that was very well positioned on their own field.

29′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Alexa Soto took advantage of a great assist from Montse Saldivar to open the score.

38′ Goal for Atlas – Ceren equalized the match.

45′ Goal for Atlas – The referee called a penalty for a handball by Jana Gutiérrez and Ceren scored to turn the game around.

Second half:

45′ Substitution – Out: Jordan Brewster – In: Alondra Cabanillas.

56′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Kiana Palacios tied the match with a shot inside the box.

Just when it seemed like an equalizer was unlikely, Cabanillas appeared with a great cross so that Kiana Palacios could take advantage of a defensive error and tie the match.

70′ Substitution – Out: Montse Saldivar – In: Sarah Luebbert.

The Águilas continued to control the match, but not with the same intensity as during the first 30 minutes.

Bruna Vilamala had the last chance to win the match, but her shot was deflected and just missed the goal.

98′ GOAL FOR AMÉRICA – Right in the last minute, the referee called a penalty after a handball in the box. Kiana Palacios converted it for the final 2-3 score.

A key victory that allows the team to secure third place; they reach 35 points and no matter what happens this round, they will remain in third place and could still climb to second in the final round.

América's next league match will be on November 1st, visiting Mazatlán in the last round of the regular phase.
