On matchday 6 of the Clausura, Club León and América gave us the match of the day. Emotions lasted until the end of the match, as everything seemed to indicate that it would end in a draw, but a well-kicked penalty by Mena gave the home team a 3-2 victory.
Victor Davila put León ahead in the 31st minute, Martin equalized. In the second half, Rodriguez would put León back in the lead (88'), but Henry Martin would score his brace. In injury time, Mena was stronger than Ochoa and sealed the victory. It is worth mentioning that Pedro Aquino played until the 46th minute and was replaced by Richard Sánchez.

How is León doing?
León comes into this match with a long streak of poor results. They haven't won since matchday 2. They drew 3-3 against Pumas, had a 1-1 draw against Puebla on matchday 3, followed by a 0-0 draw against Chivas de Guadalajara, and lost 1-0 to Toluca. For this reason, the 'Fiera' will go all out to get back on the winning track and reconnect with their fans.
How is América doing?
América comes into this match after their tour in the United States. They drew 2-2 against Real Madrid, where Pedro Aquino was one of the standouts, and they want to show that these high-level friendlies have helped them improve. In their last domestic match, they lost 2-0 to Tijuana. The team led by Fernando Ortiz knows that they owe a collective performance and this will be a great opportunity to redeem themselves.
