Great first half from Lainez who then disappeared. Even considering we're missing Dominguez and Menez, a 0-0 against Monterrey who played most of the game with 10 men is worrisome. We were pretty lucky not to get caught on the break at the end of the game. For Diego, I guess all we can do is hope he gets the nerves under control. Without goals I don't see him taking the spot away from Dominguez. Menez should be back next week...maybe as a second-half sub. No word yet on when Cecilio is due.
Tras semanas parado por un desgarre, Ménez ya trabaja al parejo del grupo en Coapa. Podría tener minutos el viernes en Puebla. pic.twitter.com/rxoSpC4S4w— Alejandro Alfaro (@AlexAlfaro48) April 16, 2018
Diego Lainez, seguido de cerca por dos clubes europeos El juvenil de las Águilas sería del interés del Mónaco de Francia y Leipzig de Alemania https://www.record.com.mx/futbol-fu...inez-seguido-de-cerca-por-dos-clubes-europeos

Menez won't play against Puebla. Piojo is holding him out to recuperate more but he should be ready for the Santos game.
Para los que preguntaban o por los rumores que había de que se iba gratis, Laínez tiene tres años de contrato con América, informa Herrera.— Billy Escobar 🏹 (@BillyEscobar7) April 19, 2018 Also, here's tomorrow's starting 11: ------------------- Marchesin ------------------- Aguilar --- Valdez ----- Aguilera --- Vargas -------------- Guido ------ Uribe ---------------- ---- Renato ------ Lainez ------ Ibarguen ----- ---------------------- Oribe ------------------------

That was shit. The only positives we're Lainez playingwell and Renato's goal. Everything else was shit. When's the last time Oribe actually had a good game? Menez will be back for Santos but who knows how rusty he'll be. I'd rather see Edson starting over Aguilera. We're not winning shit this season.
Based on today's results we clinched a liguilla spot. Also with Morelia's loss I believe that assures us second place in the combined standings. That means that even if we don't make the finals, we still qualify for CCL if the finals consist of two of Tigres, Monterrey, or Toluca.
If we beat Santos next week then we avoid Tigres and Monterrey in the first round. If we lose or tie then we face the loser of their match next week (if they tie then it's Tigres).
Don't get your hopes up, but if America win their next game, and Monterrey-Tigres ends in a draw, America just stumbled their way into second place going into the liguilla.
Line-up for tomorrow: ------------------- Marchesin ------------------- Aguilar --- Valdez ----- Aguilera --- Vargas -------------- Guido ------ Corona -------------- ---- Renato ----- Ibarguen ------ Lainez ----- ---------------------- Oribe ------------------------ Cecilio, Menez, and Martin will all be on the bench.
