América vs Mazatlán

Club America cruised past Mazatlan FC 2-0 at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes to climb into the Liguilla zone on Matchday 11 of the Clausura 2026. Raphael Veiga broke the deadlock before halftime and Vinicius Lima sealed it late on. The hosts could have been ahead even earlier. Brian Rodriguez squandered a penalty in just the eighth minute after a handball was called in the Mazatlan box. Goalkeeper Ricardo Rodriguez was in inspired form for the visitors, pulling off three impressive saves before Veiga finally found a way through with a clinical left-footed finish on 43 minutes. Vinicius Lima put the result beyond doubt in the 80th minute, firing into the far post to wrap up a deserved three points. The win lifts America into playoff contention, while Mazatlan remain stuck near the bottom of the table with a tough road ahead.
