It’s only the first week and Liga MX is already proving anything can happen as America were held to a scoreless draw by Queretaro. Yes, the Apertura’s worst team held the leaders to a draw. The ‘Aguilas’ could not finish their chances and didn’t start the season the way they hoped they would after a difficult loss in the semifinals last season.

Even before the game started, many were a bit confused with the starting lineup. Henry Martin, their leading goal-scorer last season, started the game on the bench while Miguel Layun got the start. Layun is a player that has left many wondering why he’s still part of the team, but fans will have to deal with him for a while longer as he signed an extension during the offseason.
