Take a look at James Rodríguez’s incredible performance for Club León versus Atlético San Luis.
Great football is linked with James Rodríguez. As demonstrated on Sunday night, February 16, in the 2-1 victory over Atlético San Luis, which marked the seventh round of the season, the Colombian has revolutionized games in Liga MX with incredible performances.
The ‘Fiera’ team raced to the top of the standings with 19 points after seven rounds thanks to two outstanding assists from the 2014 World Cup Golden Boot winner.
In six games with the Guanajuato team, the Colombian midfielder has already contributed four assists and one goal.
Two minutes into the game, Eduardo Berizzo’s team took the lead thanks to a header from John Stiven Mendoza of Valle del Cauca after James’s accurate cross hit the goalpost.
Following that, James wowed the audience with a nutmeg and other technical ball movements, showcasing his magical abilities.
In the 22nd minute, Sébastien Salles-Lamonge tied the score. However, just when it appeared like a 1-1 draw was imminent, the former Real Madrid and Bayern Munich midfielder scored again in the 87th minute, heading in a corner kick.
Club León will play the defending champions, America de México, who are now second in the standings with 16 points, in the next game.
The time of this meeting is set for 8:00 PM on Wednesday, February 19.
“It will be a great match for everyone, for football lovers to sit back and enjoy,” Rodriguez said.
The midfielder for the Colombian national team also recognized the secret to his present success in Mexican football.
“I’m content in the city, and it shows on the field. The coaching staff and the group have greeted me nicely. James remarked, “I think it’s much easier when one plays well and has the desire, and that’s what makes me happy.”
Following two difficult experiences at Rayo Vallecano and Sao Paulo, James Rodríguez is now playing six games in a month, five of which were as a starter, and putting on impressive performances at the club level without any injuries.
