Club América has reached another Liga MX final proving they are one of the strongest teams in Mexican soccer but this league is called a short league meaning 2 cups in one year. They have made four finals in a row and as a fan it’s exciting to see if they can win another championship “la tetra“ meaning a possible fourth championship in a row making history for Club América. However this isn’t the first team winning a fourth championship consecutively. Their rival team Guadalajara-Chivas has proven they were the strongest Mexican team over 63 years ago but this league was a longer league. But we will be looking at how Club América won three consecutive trophies and a possible fourth.
In the 2023/2024 Apertura final, Club América faced UANL (Tigres). Club América was seeking their 14th title while Tigres was looking for their 9th title. In the final there’s two games: the lowest position home first then the top position team home. Club América played away and both teams tied with (1-1) at the Estadio Universitario De Nuevo León. Then Club América played at their stadium, the final game where they played with all their guts. However, Club América won this game easily 3-0, but in aggregate (4-1). Club América marked their 14th trophy ever since 2018.
In the 2023/2024 Clausura final Club America pulled a back to back final facing their enemy Cruz Azul. Cruz Azul was hoping to get their hand on the title but it did not happen for them. Club América got their 15th trophy winning by 2-1. However Cruz Azul fans were not happy about the game due to a late penalty favoring América to win the game.
Lastly, the 2023/2024 Aperture final Club América faced off with Monterey having a chance to be a tricampeón. Club América was seeking their 16th championship and a revenge that happened in 2018 where Monterey beat Club América in penalties (2-4). Club América won 3-2 marking their 16th championship.
However, Club América are once again in a final and they can be a modern “tetra” winner. Toluca on the other hand is a very strong club and will be fighting to take their 11 championship after not winning in 15 years.
On May 25 there was a remarkable history for both teams. Toluca won their 11th title and they are now behind Chivas with a total of 12 titles. On the other side, Club América made four consecutive finals but lost their tetracampeon, both teams put up a heck of a fight but Toluca managed to beat América.
