For 80 years the National Classic paralyzes Mexican soccer. Chivas and America They star in the most passionate rivalry in an entire country in a game that no one wants to miss, which has left great anecdotes, historical players and also the dominance of the Eagles.
It was on August 1, 1943 when the first Classic of Classics. A Cup duel brought these two teams together on the field of Parque Guadalajara, a duel that ended with a result in favor of Rebaño Sagrado, thanks to a solo goal by Pablo González, who secured victory for his team at minute 56.
The antagonism grew and to date it is a commitment that nobody wants to lose, where pride is at stake more than the score. There have been seven official tournaments and 39 editions in friendly matches, and although the first official game was won by Chivas, the superiority in terms of results has been from America.
The people of the capital give their all for everything and throughout these eight decades they have recorded a total of 90 wins, 79 draws and 77 losses. And as expected, most of these duels have been derived from the League tournament and the Liguilla Phase of Mexican soccer with a total of 184 games.
If you had to talk about the figures that have participated in this old rivalry, more pages would be needed. América remembers with special affection the names of Miguel Zelada, Alfredo Tena or Guillermo Sepúlveda, Carlos Reinoso or Cuauhtémoc Blanco, just to mention some of the figures who gallantly defended its shield.
While Guadalajara keeps in mind to this day the mark left by players like Salvador Reyes, Benjamín Galindo, Fernando Quirarte or Adolfo Bautista, all of them were in charge of forging a rivalry that to this day remains more latent than ever in a game in the one that victory is not negotiable.
