Henry Martín, the fourth best scorer in the history of America, warmed up this Sunday's duel against the Pumas of UNAM in search of he ticketed the semifinal by questioning the way he wanted to win the university draw through a protest due to improper alignment.

At the press conference scheduled by América, Henry Martín, who has 119 goals in the history of the Americanista team, put his finger in the sore by taking distance from the claim of the felines and comparing it with that of the Eagles, who always seek to win on the playing field.

Martín said feeling surprised by the decision of the Pumas to present a protest due to improper alignment when the problem of concussion of the Uruguayan defense arose bastián Cáceres, which generated a great confusion in the changes, since Miguel Vázquez had already retired from the field relieved by Thiago Espinosa, which would have stopped the change for Cáceres.

But the reality is that the concussion protocol would have allowed Cáceres to use the blue switch that grants any team an extra modification for this situation and which wouldn't have created this whole mess.

“It's surprising that you make a complaint about that and try to win the game by strange means; we don't definitely share it, because "and we kill ourselves on the court to get the result and we don't get any advantage from this situation," explained Henry Martín.

He also said that on the field is where matches are won and that this way of wanting to take advantage of this situation only generates doubt about the ways of wanting to eliminate America, especially in this rivalry that has increased and comes from the basic forces. 

Similarly, Henry Martín made it clear that the commitment against Pumas represents much more than a ticket to the semi-finals, due to the rivalry that exists between both institutions and the debt they consider having with the fans. 

It's a classic, pride is at stake, that excitement that we all have to go to the semifinals. Pumas knows what it means and we have unfinished business with the fans; we play the pride of the fans and ours 

The Eagles had a visit from the patron

This Friday there were new things in America, such as the presence of the team owner, Emilio Azcárraga, who attended the facilities of Coapa p to live with the squad and witness the team training, something that, according to Henry, served as additional motivation for the group. 

“It's his house, it's the pattern and he comes when he wants. We didn't know he's coming, but he takes that motivation and I know that we're all in the same tune in. Although there was a talk as such, he was watching the training and that motivates us more, it impregnates that desire in us, he concluded.
