Former ESPN commentator, David Faitelson, recently compared the current search for glory by Club América with the historical achievements of Chivas 70 years ago. Faitelson highlighted that, despite being the most successful team in Mexico today, América has not yet reached the level of glory that Chivas had in past decades.
Faitelson's statements sparked debate and criticism, with some questioning the current relevance of Chivas and suggesting that the team lives in the past. However, the journalist defended the greatness of Chivas, pointing out that despite current difficulties, the team remains historic, legendary, and glorious.
Chivas' recent elimination in the round of 16 of the Concacaf Champions Cup at the hands of América has generated a wave of criticism towards the tapatío team.
