Apologies from Cruz Azul midfielder Aldo Leao
Cruz Azul midfielder Aldo Leao apologized to the team's fans after being sent off in the second half while his team was leading 3-0 against Club America.
"I can't back down. I face the consequences and offer an apology to my teammates and the fans because it was turning out to be a great game," mentioned the midfielder.
Leao told the referee that the play where he received the red card "in his point of view is not worthy of expulsion."
After being reduced to 10 men on the field, La Maquina stopped attacking, which resulted in Club America turning the score around, ending in a 3-4 defeat.
