Chivas vs. America: "This is one of the most painful defeats I've ever had in my life"

The Chivas technical director, Víctor Manuel Vucetich, did not hide his discomfort after the defeat by 0-3 in the National Classic against the Águilas del América, and acknowledged that his changes did not work and the performance of his players was not optimal. neither in football terms nor in attitude.

"Without a doubt this was a bad exhibition, we are sorry because we did not have the character and in that sense (it was a game) well won by America, which surpassed us," said 'el Rey Midas', who could have his days counted at the helm of the team from Guadalajara. After eleven games, they have been left out of the playoff zone, one position below Tigres.

"It is one of the most painful defeats I have had, the team's actions were bad in every way, starting with me and with the entire squad," admitted the experienced coach, and who came to replace Luis Fernando Tena, also for bad results. If Vucetich remains in charge of Chivas in the next few days, he already knows where to start to prepare his next match, which would be against Rayados de Monterrey, after the FIFA fixtures.

"It is our Achilles heel, we have not found a way to counteract the aerial game," said the coach after his team received the first two goals by way of set pieces, both sealed with the head by Mexican striker Henry Martín. The Chivas de Guadalajara have fallen into a crisis of results. Before this game they had only won one of the last five games, drawing the other four.
