Journalist David Faitelson expressed his criticisms towards Club América for their performance in the Apertura 2024, labeling their tournament as mediocre. Faitelson questioned Brazilian coach André Jardine about the possibility of resigning if the team fails to qualify for the Liguilla, which he would consider a failure for the institution. However, Jardine defended the team, highlighting that the tournament is not yet over and that each match represents a complicated challenge in a difficult competition.
During the interview on the program Línea de 4 on TUDN, tensions rose when Faitelson confronted Jardine about the club's expectations and the possibility of taking responsibility if the objectives are not met. The coach defended América, emphasizing that they are focused on moving forward in the tournament and reminding that they have been successful in the past.
Club América is currently in ninth place on the table with 21 points, far from the level they showed in previous tournaments when they were champions. Despite the criticisms and questions regarding their playing style and the injuries suffered by the team this season, Jardine and his team continue to work to improve their position in the standings and prove that they are capable of competing at the highest level.
Amidst speculations and media pressure, Jardine and América remain focused on the remaining matches and the possibility of qualifying for the Liguilla, demonstrating their determination and confidence in reversing the current situation. Despite the criticisms, the team stays united and committed to giving their best in every match, with the hope of achieving their goals by the end of the season.
