Club America edged the Columbus Crew in a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/match/columbus-crew-vs-cf-america/I0lW60X7qddswYUlHEwmu" target="_blank">5-4 win in penalties</a> (1-1 FT) to secure the Liga MX's side's first-ever Campeones Cup in the 2024 edition of the tournament.It is the fifth trophy lifted by André Jardine's club in the past 15 months, extending an era of dominance for the Mexico City-based club.After a cagey first half, Víctor Dávila got things going for America in the 68th minute, scoring in wide open space on a turnover by the Crew. America appeared to be close to finalizing their win when Malte Amundsen equalized in an emphatic nature off a set piece in the 77th minute.Regular time would end with both sides tied 1-1. After a nail-biting seven rounds of penalties, Néstor Araujo would convert the game-winning penalty following Amundsen's miss.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Columbus Crew were disappointed again in matches against Liga MX sides in finals this season. After an impressive run to the CONCACAF Champions League final, the Crew suffered a 3-0 rout against Pachuca in June.While this final was more closely-fought, the missed opportunities will likely give coach Wilfried Nancy and his side some sleepless nights.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Club America are on an impressive cup run, but are currently struggling in this Liga MX season. The side sits 10th after nine games with just 13 points. This was a much-needed boost for a club that has been largely successful over the past 15 months.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Crew will have a quick turnaround as they travel to face D.C. United in just three days. Perhaps it will be an opportunity to quickly move on from Wednesday night's loss.America return to action this Sunday with a home match against the No. 5. side in Liga MX in Pumas.
