The player who doesn't want Emilio Lara in América and showed it against Juárez
Emilio Lara became America's star player But one of his teammates showed that they don't want him on the pitch.
América defeated Juárez at the Azteca Stadium and one of the high points of the match was precisely the performance of homegrown player Emilio Lara. He came in as a replacement for Jorge Sánchez, who is very close to signing with Ajax of the Netherlands.
In a match where Emilio Lara started as a right winger and had similar offensive duties to those of Jorge Sanchez in the first half, he had a hard time adapting after the technical errors of his teammate Alejandro Zendejas.

It turns out that America's left winger started as an inside right back to give more freedom to the Azulcrema's offensive play, however, when Emilio Lara came on, Zendejas preferred not to take over.
Was Lara the star of the match?
America's coach, Fernando Ortiz, understood that Zendejas was hurting Emilio Lara and that's why he put him on the left flank. In this way, Layún was able to cover the young Mexican and even ended up providing an assist for Henry Martin's second goal.
