Club América came out victorious in the Clásico Nacional defeating Guadalajara 0-1 in their stadium. Now they will wrap things up at the Estadio Azteca where they can book their ticket to the final and a chance at trophy number 14.

From the start, Chivas looked much better this time around, which confused América at first, considering the last time these two teams met was back in week 12 where Chivas lost a disastrous game at home by 2-4. América had the first chance of the night as Diego Valdes took a shot that went wide. Chivas had their own, and possibly their best chance of the night, as Alexis Vega went one-on-one with goalkeeper Luis Malagon who managed to save the ball from going in.
