A year of setbacks for Club América in 2025 | OneFootball

Club América is having a terrible year in terms of sports results.

The eagles went from dominating Liga MX with ease to losing absolutely everything they compete for; this year they have already had four 'failures'.

But this is no coincidence, the team has been weakening over the years, letting go of great players like Jonathan Rodríguez, Julián Quiñones, Diego Valdés, among others, and the replacements have not been even close to the same level.

The failures in this 2025.

Concacaf Champions – Lost in Quarterfinals against Cruz Azul.

The Concacaf Champions Cup was one of the main objectives, as the team wanted to break their international drought of almost 10 years without winning a trophy. They fell against Cruz Azul in a very close series that was decided by a header that Sepúlveda won against Néstor Araujo.

Clausura 2025 – Lost final against Toluca.

Perhaps we couldn't call this a great failure, since reaching four consecutive finals and winning three is a great achievement; but the ways in which they lost were what hurt the most.

They lost against Toluca in a series in which they didn't generate anything in offense, a trend that was repeated many times in this 2025.

Club World Cup Play-in – Lost against LAFC.

They had the golden opportunity to qualify for the first edition of the 32-team Club World Cup.

They had the ticket in their pocket at minute 88′. Goal from a corner kick to tie the game and in extra time, Bouanga appeared to give the victory to the MLS team.

Campeón de Campeones – Lost against Toluca.

It was a perfect opportunity to start the season on the right foot, but instead, they increased the crisis that the team is going through.

América was ineffective against a Toluca that applied the same formula as in the final; waiting, stopping the game with fouls and taking advantage of the eagles' mistakes.

The eagles once again lacked ideas and were totally outplayed by a rival that didn't need much to win.
