Saint‑Maximin Scores Again Off Bench as América Beats Pachuca Behind Closed Doors

Early contributions are reframing questions about his form after a stop‑start stint in the Middle East.

Overview

  • The French winger netted for a second straight league match, sealing a 2-0 win over Pachuca after coming on as a substitute.
  • He entered in the 60th minute for Brian Rodríguez and scored 11 minutes later to make it 2-0.
  • His goal came by outsmarting goalkeeper Carlos Moreno on a counter, finishing from long range into an open net.
  • Both of his América goals have come off the bench, totaling roughly 60 minutes of play across two outings.
  • The Pachuca match at Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes was played without fans after a local veto, as media reaction ranged from praise to on‑air mockery by analyst Jorge Pietrasanta.
