Allan Saint-Maximin’s debut for Club América: how it unfolded | OneFootball

Allan Saint-Maximin made his official debut tonight in the match against Atlas for the 6th round of the Apertura 2025.

The French-born player entered the game at the 60th minute when the eagles were having their worst moment; they had just been overtaken in the match and even had a third goal scored against them, but it was disallowed for offside.

In his first action with the ball, he got past two opponents and then played with a teammate, it wasn't a decisive play but it already gave us a taste of what was to come.

His first goal came after a great play by Kevin Álvarez who passed him the ball in the center of the box to strike with power and beat the opposing goalkeeper.

Many fans pointed out that this goal reminded them of the first one scored by his compatriot, Jérémy Ménez; in this case, let's hope they don't have the same fate, as Ménez had a good first tournament, but faded due to injuries and lack of professionalism.

The celebration of his first goal was quite a show, he ran across the entire field, did a spectacular flip, celebrated with the bench teammates and even danced for the Americanista fans.

In terms of numbers, Allan left us with one goal, five out of six duels won and a pass effectiveness of 94 percent.

But beyond everything seen on the playing field, what is very exciting about this player, is that he seems very committed in all aspects, and even feels like one more on the team, not feeling like the star or above the rest of his teammates.

If he continues like this, he will surely bring a lot of joy to the Americanista fans.
