Guadalajara, Jalisco /
Although they had planned to receive up to 12,000 fans over the weekend, finally there will be no people at Akron Stadium for the Chivas vs. Cougars of Day 8, As the Jalisco Government Health Board determined that public health conditions are not given at the moment for the reopening of the property.
Although a couple of weeks ago the governor of Jalisco, Enrique Alfaro, gave hopes to Chivas and Atlas to be able to count on public in their respective tracks, the Health Board carries the last word on these issues in the midst of a coronavirus pandemic.
⚠️ After several days of working together with the Health Board, we have made the determination NOT to open the doors of the @EstadioAkron this Sunday vs. Pumas.
The health of our fans will continue to be a priority and we will wait for the right time to #VolverteAVer ????????????

Chivas vs America could be with fans
With the refusal to receive people in the stands this weekend in front of the University, the calendar seems to be “tailor-made” because Chivas can reopen their stadium against America in the National Classic on Day 11, Which is his next commitment as a local with consecutive outings in Querétaro and Mazatlán in Days 9 and 10.
Atlas played without an audience against America
As well as the Guadalajara wanted to take advantage of the Pumas visit to the Tapatía Pearl to have box office income, at the time was valued in Atlas the option of receiving people against a national convocation team such as America, Although the controversial game was played behind closed doors, which on the court ended 0-2 in favor of the Eagles and 3-0 for the Foxes on the desk for misalignment of the capital.
