Club América defeated Tijuana 3-1 as they made their debut at home. The game was suspended for 30 minutes due to a thunderstorm but that did not slow down the Aguilas who scored immediately after play resumed and made a last minute goal to extend their lead against Xolos.
The game began almost immediately as Brian Rodriguez got the action started with a chance two minutes in. He sent a cross into the box, but the ball was defended out before it reached Rodrigo ‘Bufalo’ Aguirre. Not even a minute later Igor Lichnovsky committed a foul outside of his area that ended in nothing as Tijuana was unable to take advantage of the free kick.
