On Sunday night, America was categorically with the National Classic of Mexico by defeating Chivas 3-0, in Guadalajara, as a result of the goals of Henry Martin, twice, and Sebastián Córdova. The team coached by the Argentine Santiago Solari lost only one of the eleven games played since the other loss that he registers was due to poor inclusion in the match against Atlas that he had won. With 25 points, Las Águilas follow two points behind the leader, Cruz Azul, and took four from Santos Laguna, the third. 

And many miles away, the Azulcrema team had a very particular fan: Raúl Jimenez. The forward who plays in Wolverhampton not only played in America, but is also a fan, so he didn't care about the time difference with England and followed the National Classic at his home.

"Reliving this with my Eagles is a classic. Congratulations Club América for that resounding victory in the Classic", he wrote in a story through his Instagram account, a publication that quickly went viral among America's fans.
