As '9': Lara scored the 1-0 for América in the match against Querétaro in Liga MX.

From the 7-0 victory over Cruz Azul to suffering for 48 minutes to open the scoring in the América vs. Querétaro match. The team led by Fernando Ortiz worked hard to convert the 1-0 at the La Corregidora stadium. And it wasn't one of their forwards who scored the goal, defender Emilio Lara entered the opponent's area to defeat goalkeeper Antonio Rodríguez.

The 'Eagles' advanced into the 'White Roosters' territory. Then, Jonathan Rodríguez received a pass on the wing. The 'Cabecita' faced midfielder Leonardo Sequeira and managed to surpass him. Additionally, the Uruguayan player delivered the cross despite defender Omar Mendoza's attempt to block the offensive.

The cross from 'Cabecito' Rodríguez reached near the penalty spot. Henry Martín advanced to that spot, connecting the header between defender Rafael Fernández and forward Ariel Nahuelpan. The deflection by América's striker favored Emilio Lara, who threw himself on the Querétaro field.

Pablo Barrera tried to close down, but the 'Eagles' defender stretched his leg so that the tip of his boot hit it. Thus, the ball went through the legs of goalkeeper Antonio Rodríguez, who could do little to prevent the first goal of the match at the 'White Roosters' field.
