Emanuel Aguilera, currently playing for Atlas, played a great match against Tigres in the first leg of the Clausura 2022 semifinals to help his team win 3-0 at the Jalisco stadium in Guadalajara. The Rojinegro team reached this stage after eliminating Chivas de Guadalajara, and now faced the Felinos, who advanced with difficulty after defeating Cruz Azul in the quarterfinals.

In the match, Atlas put up a great fight against the team coached by Miguel Herrera, who were outplayed at all times and were surprised after losing by such a heavy score. Atlas' first goal came from a penalty kick after Nahuel Guzmán brought down Chala, the Zorros' Colombian player, who got past the goalkeeper but was unable to finish the play due to a foul. Julio Furch changed the penalty for a goal.
Then, Reyes scored the second and Julián Quiñones, a former Tigres player, finished the game for the Auriazules. However, Emanuel Aguilera was the defensive leader and saved a Tigres goal on the line after a shot by Yeferson Soteldo, so the central defender, a former player of América, was a fundamental key to having a favorable score for the second leg.
América's board of directors considered that the 32-year-old player had no more to give for the Azulcremas and let him go. Currently, the Águilas have Bruno Valdez, Sebastian Cáseres, and Jorge Meré as central defenders; however, the Spaniard Meré, who arrived this season, has not been at a good level and Aguilera has undoubtedly had a better season.
Aguilera played 4 years with América and arrived from Tijuana, played 145 games with the Azulcremas, and scored a total of 26 goals, a huge amount for a central defender. The Argentine was in charge of taking penalties and did so effectively. After this game, the Águilas will surely have regretted letting him go.
