• He entered on 60 minutes versus Pachuca and scored 11 minutes later, giving him two goals in roughly 60 minutes of action so far.
• América remains undefeated and sits second in the Apertura with 17 points after the Pachuca victory, which was played behind closed doors due to a municipal sanction on the stadium.
• Local coverage highlights his goals-per-minute surge, with comparisons noting a far quicker scoring rate than Javier Hernández since his return to Liga MX.
