Yes, it turns out, a Clásico Capitalino in the quarterfinals of the Clausura playoffs is quite lit. A 38-minute brace from Mateus Uribe and controversial penalty converted by Jeremy Menez put Club America up three at Estadio Olimpico Universitario, but a Pumas penalty, converted by Nicolas Castillo, has given life to the underdogs at halftime.
Controversy aside, Uribe’s second was a sensational strike that’s really only appreciated after multiple viewings. It was a violent hit, triggered after opening the body, allowing the ball to run across the body and finally onto the laces of a swiveling right foot.
¡GOOOOOL! (38') | No fue un GOL, FUE UN GOLAAAAZOOOOO.
