Chivas, close to traumatizing America on its Centennial.

Chivas is close to making the Águilas remain with a lasting and deep wound, as out of the six Clásicos they have faced in 2016, the Rebaño has only achieved one victory.

Chivas is close to making the Águilas remain with a lasting and deep wound, as out of the six Clásicos they have faced in 2016, the Rebaño has only achieved one victory.

America celebrated its Centennial in 2016, a year in which it has already faced Chivas on six occasions (seven in total). Two victories for the Eagles, one for Chivas, and three draws, a balance that includes playoffs from Clausura and Apertura 2016 (Quarterfinals), regular phase of both tournaments, and the Copa MX Semifinal, in its Apertura 2016 edition.

In numbers, the Club America stands out; however, for Chivas, a three to zero at the Azteca Stadium was enough to freeze its historic rival.

In August, just days before the yellow (October 12) 100th birthday, Matías Almeyda's men 'danced' around the home team, the final blow for Ignacio Ambriz's farewell from the cream bench a couple of game weeks later.

For the cup semifinal, once again at the Azteca, the red-white team eliminated the eleven commanded by Ricardo La Volpe; a draw with one goal each during regular time and a ticket to the final for Chivas from the spot.

In three matches, Chivas found a red-white branch in the country's capital, which includes a thrashing, the retirement of an opportunity for a title for its antagonist, and a tie in the first leg of the current tournament's quarterfinals, which, if the result is maintained, would seal the American's 'trauma': Chivas would be responsible for taking away the Eagles' two chances to fight for crowns in the year of their Centennial.

A few days ago, Emilio Azcárraga, CEO of Grupo Televisa, pointed out to La Afición that America does not save seasons by winning Clásicos, it saves campaigns by winning titles; however, Jorge Vergara's team, with one more Clásico, the one on Sunday, November 27, would seal for America the "emotional collision that causes lasting damage to the unconscious."

*Trauma: From the Greek τραῦμα (traûma) meaning 'wound'. (RAE)
