America take 1st place after Tigres fail to find an equalizer

Apart from the goal they conceded, America were able to dominate the game and hold off Tigres for a 2-1 win at home. Miguel Hererra’s side had no answers and looked frustrated as the night went on. They go back home with three draws and one loss in their last four games. America secure their seventh consecutive win and move to first place over Monterrey due to goal differential.

In the first half, it only took one minute for America to score after Richard Sanchez sent a through ball to Alejandro Zendejas, who was able to pass it off to Jonathan Rodriguez for the first goal of the night.
