Tano Ortiz would leave this player on the bench in the Pachuca vs América match after his failure in the first leg

The entire season is at stake for América this Sunday at the Hidalgo Stadium when it visits Pachuca, in the second leg of the semifinal of the Clausura 2022 Tournament. This is the most important match of the season so far, which is why Fernando Ortíz already has the best possible lineup in mind.

Why América could return to international duty if they beat Pachuca?

In the first leg, which ended in a one-goal draw, El Tano made a change to his usual formation. Although Richard Sánchez was already fully recovered and ready to see action, the decision was made to field Pedro Aquino, which worked out quite well.

Who would Fernando Ortiz replace?

The one who did see action after the injury was Federico Viñas, who unfortunately did not take advantage of the start, as he missed a clear goal-scoring opportunity in the first minutes. From then on, there was doubt as to who should be the nominal striker for the second match, whether the Uruguayan or Henry Martín.

Throughout these days, the Águilas trained in Coapa with the entire squad available and motivated to try to get the victory that will give them a pass to the Grand Final of the Clausura 2022 Tournament. 

América's lineup vs Pachuca for the second leg of the Semifinals

El Tano knows that there is little to change in the eleven, so the formation will be as follows: Guillermo Ochoa in goal; Jorge Sánchez, Bruno Valdez, Sebastián Cáceres and Luis Fuentes in defense; Pedro Aquino or Richard Sánchez, Álvaro Fidalgo, Alejandro Zendejas and Diego Valdés in midfield; Roger Martínez, Henry Martín or Federico Viñas in attack.
