In the last match of the group stage, Club América faced off against Columbus Crew SC to determine the leader of Group Central 1. The MLS team won the match with a score of 4-1.

Let’s highlight the immediate impact that the new number 5 of Club América, Kevin Álvarez, has had. The Mexican full-back arrived this summer to cover one of the areas where América has suffered the most since Jorge Sánchez's departure to Ajax. And he has done it spectacularly. Not only in the defensive aspect, but the Mexican has had 4 appearances with his team so far and has scored in his last 3 matches.

Despite the defeat, Club América advanced to the Round of 32 and will face Chicago Fire FC. Now, their coach already knows that if the forwards are not at their best, they can rely on Kevin Álvarez to find the goal.
