Club América Femenil championship campaign

Overview

In July 2026, Club América Femenil announced its intent to strengthen the squad ahead of the Campeón de Campeonas, adding left-back Karol Bernal and goalkeeper Celeste Espino. A week later, the team captured the Campeón de Campeonas title at Toyota Field in San Antonio, Texas, defeating Tigres Femenil on penalties after a 1–1 draw. This win completed a treble that included the Liga MX Femenil Clausura 2026 and the CONCACAF Women’s Champions Cup.

Transitioning into the Apertura 2026 tournament, the club maintained its momentum with a historic 10-0 victory over Cruz Azul at Estadio Banorte. Following this heavy defeat, Cruz Azul Femenil announced the departure of head coach Israel Del Real after the board decided to end his process as technical director.

Amidst these changes, goalkeeper Celeste Espino, who recently secured a gold medal with the Mexican national team at the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games, officially joined América Femenil after transitioning from Chivas.

On the third matchday of the Apertura 2026, América inaugurated its renovated Mini Estadio, known as ‘El Nido’, with a 5-1 victory against Puebla. The remodeled venue at the Coapa facilities features expanded stands, a new scoreboard, and a VIP ‘Zona Dorada’ area. Following the match, coach Ángel Villacampa noted that the stadium offers an opportunity to bring fans closer to the players. The victory maintains América’s perfect record in the tournament with nine points and 18 goals scored. The club plans to use the Mini Estadio for specific matchdays while returning to Estadio Banorte or Estadio Azteca for high-profile fixtures.
