After missing four games, Alejandro Zendejas returned to lead the Eagles to a 1-0 victory over Monterrey. The Mexican-American was left out of the typical vs. Chivas due to an obvious tissue injury.

Zendejas provided the imagination and harm up front, which made The Eagles look different, especially since The Eagles looked different with him, demonstrating that the 264th version of the Clasico Nacional at Chivas ' house ground will be a back-and-forth event. It will be a really tough blow for Jardine's staff if they can't recover from their 100th victory in Mexico's biggest soccer rivalry.

So, the Americanista squad won their third straight game against Olimpia of Honduras and their next against Necaxa and Monterrey in Liga MX. In contrast to their first three games, which they didn't get or score any goals, they are now more comfortable in that place.

The outcome doesn't reflect the match's true nature, with the Rayados ' goalkeeper Luis" Mochis" Cardenas denying at least three goals as the team's star.

The Americanista squad showed great promise, and the Eagles' offense seemed to be back to their old ways. America also recovered one of its key players, Henry Martin, who played 65 minutes, surpassing his first appearance of the season against Necaxa, where he only played 45 minutes after a four-month absence. Under these circumstances, the Eagles showed they will be a tough nut to crack for Chivas in the Clasico Nacional, especially if Zendejas' injury was just a false alarm and he could be available against Gabriel Milito's team in a match that, despite being played on Friendship Day, already looks set to be anything but friendly.

German Berterame's goal allowed Rayados to retaliate against them in the quarterfinals of the previous competition. Berterame, who is currently with Inter Miami, was unreachable tonight because Serbian Uros Durdevic, his replacement, wasn't yet fully recovered. This was evident in the end, as they never threatened Luis Malagon's goal in the second half, aside from the final minutes.
