The Mexican defined very close to the small area, without any mark, and decreed the 1-1 draw in a match for the Liga MX Tournament's Apertura, at the León Stadium. The 'Águilas' equalized before halftime.
América vs León: preview
The Club León had a promising start to the championship, beating Atlético San Luis away (1-2), but that match was the only one that meant a celebration for the team. After that match, the team led by Renato Paiva had three consecutive draws and recently a defeat.
Circumstances at Club América are similar, as the team has only achieved one victory in the season and is currently outside the playoff qualification zone. However, coach Fernando Ortiz trusts in reversing the situation, motivated by the last match played by his squad.
Midweek, the 'Águilas' had a standout performance against Real Madrid, achieving a 2-2 draw with goals from Henry Martín and Álvaro Fidalgo. In addition to the scorers of the day, Pedro Aquino was one of the figures of the match in the midfield, both in his role of marking and breaking lines in attack.
