Club América crowned champion of the Apertura 2023

Club América can now proclaim themselves the best in Mexico after defeating Tigres to win their 14th title. The game was evenly matched until everything changed with a controversial red card in the 80th minute for Tigres and things only got worse for them in extra time, where América scored three goals in 30 minutes to take the title.

Tigres had their first chance of the game as André-Pierre Gignac was in the penalty area, but unfortunately he was not able to get his foot on the ball. América had their first chance of the night in the third minute as Alvaro Fidalgo attempted a shot, but Nahuel Guzman was there to block it.
