América 1-1 Chivas – All square in friendly clash | OneFootball

América and Chivas draw 1–1 in a friendly match in the United States.

Despite 14 absences for this match, André Jardine sent out a very interesting lineup with Rodolfo Cota, Sebastián Cáceres, Miguel Vázquez, Igor Lichnovsky, Cristian Borja, Alan Cervantes, Santiago Naveda, Víctor Dávila, Isaías Violante, Brian Rodríguez, and Rodrigo Aguirre.

2′ Chivas goal – ‘Chicharito’ opens the scoring.

The match had barely begun when the team’s first mistake came; Alan Cervantes miscontrolled a ball and gave it away outside the box; Cota managed to save the first shot, but they crossed it back in and despite there being three América players in the six-yard box, none were marking Hernández.

After that goal, Chivas controlled the ball better, but the dangerous chances belonged to Las Águilas, who had up to three clear opportunities to equalize; Brian Rodríguez was the most involved in attack.

The opponent’s dangerous plays came from direct errors; they were close to a second after a poor clearance by Miguel Vázquez.

For the second half, André Jardine made a couple of changes, taking off Sebastián Cáceres and Cristian Borja and bringing on Patricio Salas and Ralph Orquín.

60′ AMÉRICA GOAL – Víctor Dávila tied the game after an assist from Brian Rodríguez.

75′ Substitution – Off: Igor Lichnovsky – On: Néstor Araujo.

A second half with a completely superior América, dominating possession, goal actions, and the timing of the game; perhaps the only downside was the lack of ideas to finish plays dangerously at the opponent’s goal.

A disappointing match from Isaías Violante; he made poor decisions and on several occasions had the chance to assist someone in a better position, but preferred to try an individual play, which ended with the ball lost.

88′ Substitution – Off: Isaías Violante due to injury – On: Saúl Vallejo.

On the other hand, an interesting outing from Víctor Dávila; beyond his goal, he looked very involved both in attack and defense. Let’s hope this is a turning point for him to improve in this final stretch of the match.

A match that leaves some positives, such as the aforementioned performance by Víctor Dávila, but ‘Pato’ Salas also looked good in the minutes he played, and Miguel Vázquez had a very good second half.

América’s next match will be away to Cruz Azul this Saturday, October 18.
