The Eagles of America and Cruz Azul offered a sad version of the 205th game of the Clasico Joven, drawing 1-1 in the return of both teams to the Banorte (Azteca) Stadium, where both teams gave the impression of saving energy for their upcoming matches. Midweek in the Concacaf Champions League. For both teams, it wasn't a good match, as they only showed their great quality and strengths in short bursts on the pitch, perhaps because their minds were on the games against Nashville SC in the case of Club America and LAFC in the case of Cruz Azul, with a three-goal deficit. For that reason, the match at the so-called Colossus of Santa Ursula left the excitement for another time, and they were only generous for short periods of time on the field. First, America dominated in the first half of the first half, and Cruz Azul dominated in the final fifteen minutes of the first half and the first twenty minutes of the second. The Cementera Machine also suffered the loss of Argentine Nicolas Ibanez, apparently due to a muscle injury, while others claim it was a ruptured Achilles tendon, similar to Luis Malagon's injury, but nothing is confirmed until the results of the in-depth tests are known. What was expected to be a spectacular, back-and-forth duel between two teams with very high-quality players ultimately proved rather stingy in terms of quality on the field. There were a few scoring opportunities, but apart from the historic goals in the first half by Patricio Salas and Omar Campos, the rest remained mere near misses. For America, the standout player was Brian Rodriguez, and for Cruz Azul, the African Christian Ebere, whose presence in the second half, Cruz Azul's attack showed more dynamism and, consequently, some scoring opportunities, but it wasn't enough to trouble Rodolfo Cota's goal. Perhaps what's at stake midweek in the Concacaf Champions League against Nashville SC in the case of America, and even more seriously with Cruz Azul trailing 3-0 against LAFC,He shifted all his attention so that in both international games nothing could be mere appearance,but rather action in pursuit of a ticket to the semifinals.
