Toluca visited the Azteca stadium on matchday 3 of the Apertura 2022. It was a very complicated and tight match at the "Las Águilas" stadium. The tie is holding and it is largely thanks to the action of the choricero captain, Claudio Baeza.

It turns out that, in a complicated action, the scarlet captain risked his body to save the goal, when he received a tremendous impact with the ball on the back of his neck after Henry Martino's shot. The goal was a clear goal for América, but Baeza's huge save prevented the home team from taking the lead.


America played better than Toluca in a game with a lot of tackles. Despite finding themselves in certain stretches of the match, the team from the capital had the better chances in the match played at the Azteca Stadium.

From hero to villain


The Azulcrema team was superior, but little by little Toluca found its footing on the field. However, in the 30th minute, a reckless tackle by Claudio Baeza on Valdés saw the captain sent off. The referee did not hesitate for a second to give him the red card. Toluca played with 10 men.
