Starting Miguel âWachoâ JimĂ©nez in goal ahead of regular goalkeeper RaĂșl Gudiño proved to be a fatal decision as AmĂ©rica defeated Chivas 2-0 in the Estadio Azteca on Wednesday night.
América will now face Xolos in the Copa MX semi-finals, which will take place in roughly three weeks time.
On an América corner, Jiménez whiffed on his punch which allowed Bruno Valdez to smash the ball into an empty net.
The defensive errors did not stop there. In stoppage time, poor defensive communication and some more suspect goalkeeping from Jiménez allowed Nicolås Benedetti to deliver the death blow.
Now thatâs what you call a tough night at the office. The rivals will meet up at the Estadio Akron on Saturday for the Liga MXÂ SĂșper ClĂĄsico.
