America close to recovering Henry Martin as he reappears in practice vs. Morelia
Henry Martin finally appeared in America's attack in a practice match where they beat Morelia 2-0 ahead of the match on Matchday 4 vs. Necaxa
Henry Martin gave Club America a reason to celebrate this Saturday, reappearing in the Eagles' attack in their 2-1 victory over Morelia in a friendly match. This was a clear indication that he is ready to return against Necaxa in Week 4 of the Clausura 2026 tournament next weekend. The Americanista squad also managed to break their goal drought of the first three matches of the Liga MX tournament, where they drew 0-0 with Xolos, lost to Atletico San Luis, and drew 0-0 with Pachuca. Martin was eagerly awaited by the Eagles' coaching staff, led by Brazilian manager Andre Jardine, who is experiencing his worst moment with three matches without a win in a turbulent start to the championship, where they are looking to regain their former glory after being eliminated in the previous playoffs. The Yucatecan striker appeared in the Americanista attack alongside... With Colombian Jose “Pantera” Zuniga trying to shape the victory of the Eagles against Morelia in a match held at the Ciudad de los Deportes stadium, where the goal for the Purepecha team was scored by Zahid Munoz.
The victory for the Coapa team was achieved with goals from Chilean Victor Davila and academy player Patricio Salas, who continues to seek an opportunity in the attack of the Azulcrema squad that tried to take the match seriously in search of finding the rhythm that will allow them to leave behind the poor start to the championship.
Two months without playing
Henry Martin reappeared in a football match after an absence of almost two months without playing, since his last appearance was on November 29 against Monterrey when he was only able to participate for four minutes when they were eliminated in the playoffs of the previous championship.
But his goal drought has reached eight months, as he does not know what scoring since May 2025 when he made his mark in the 2-1 victory in the second leg of the Clausura 2025 tournament semifinals against Cruz Azul.
As if that weren't enough, Henry Martin's last goal was in the Clausura 2025 tournament, against Cruz Azul.The America captain scored the first goal in the comeback against La Maquina in the Semifinals, securing a place in the Grand Final against Toluca; a match that Andre Jardine's team ultimately lost.
