Club America faced Atlante in one on the most electrifying games of the Mexican League. The game took place within Estadio Andres Quintana Roo into Cancun, Mexico. The referee of the game was Paul Delgadillo. The game was a do or die for Club America in order to classify for the Mexican League also to classify in the Copa Libertadores. Vicente Vuoso scored the very first and only goal with an assist from Miguel Layun in 65 minutes. Vouso took advantage of an opening (the goalie was distracted) inside the goal post to receive the ball from Layun and execute an immediate kick into the goal post.
Pavel Pardo attempted to score a second goal for Club America within 94 minutes. Delgadillo made him repeat the intent and Pardo failed. Delgadillo then blew the whistle to end the game. The game itself was very exciting with Atlante moving at the rapid but disorganized pace. Atlante attempted to get but Guillermo Ochoa (who is the goalie for Club America) blocked every attempt to score. Club America appears to have been organized and disciplined in their gameplan. They were able to fairly distribute the ball and were consistent in their passes. The club was able to play under intense pressure on the Atlante fans inside bleachers who were screaming their support for their team and insulting Club America.
Club America has already advanced in the Mexican League or La Liguilla and may advance in the Copa Libertadores. The only real thing that is pending is a victory in the next game against Pumas. The most valued player of the overall game was Guillermo Ochoa for his ability to deflect attempts by Atlante to score and Vicente Vuoso for his stunning goal.
