Club América knock out Chivas to advance to the CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinals

Liga MX

Club América showcased its superiority and defeated Chivas 4-0, eliminating them from the Champions Cup Round of 16. With goals from Brian Rodríguez, Diego Valdés, Alejandro Zendejas, and Álvaro Fidalgo, Las Águilas secured their spot in the next phase of the tournament, where they will face Cruz Azul.The match went into halftime with a 2-0 lead for André Jardine’s team. Chivas needed just one goal to qualify for the quarterfinals due to the away goal rule, but just one minute into the second half, Alan Mozo was sent off, and América took advantage to secure a dominant victory.

WHAT HAPPENED?

El Rebaño arrived at Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes with a 1-0 advantage after winning the first leg at Estadio Akron. Meanwhile, América came into the match with something to prove to their fans, as they had failed to score against Chivas in their previous two encounters last week. Las Águilas could not afford elimination, as the Champions Cup remains the only title that André Jardine's team has yet to win.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

"We had it very difficult, the Clásico is a different game, we had the frustration of going to Guadalajara and not being able to score, but we showed why we are the three-time champions," Brian Rodríguez said. "We came out with a lot of attitude and desire. I want to thank the people who never stopped supporting us."

WHAT BRIAN RODRÍGUEZ SAID

In the past year, América and Chivas have faced off seven times in El Clásico - and not a single Chivas player has found the back of the net. The only goal Chivas have managed in those seven matches came from an América own goal in last week’s first-leg clash in the Champions Cup Round of 16.

DID YOU KNOW?

Las Águilas will face Cruz Azul in the Champions Cup Quarterfinals. La Máquina advanced after eliminating Seattle Sounders with a 4-1 victory. Jardine's team will visit Atlas this Saturday for Matchday 12 of the Clausura 2025. América currently sits in second place in the standings with 24 points.
