Chivas trolled América with a Tweet from Joe Biden

Chivas and Club América faced each other in the quarter-finals of the 2020 Guardianes tournament this week. This is Mexico’s biggest football rivalry and the team from Guadalajara beat ‘The Eagles’ twice to advance to the semifinals with a final aggregate score of 3-1.

Joe Biden’s tweet

After defeating América 2-1 on Saturday at the Azteca stadium, Chivas used a tweet from the presiden-elect of the United States, Joe Biden, to keep the celebration going. Chivas' English social media team obtained a tweet from Joe Biden that read: “America is Back.”

Biden wrote that tweet back on 24 November when it was almost confirmed that he had won the 2020 Presidential elections.

The English account of Chivas added the word ‘HOME’ to Joe Biden’s tweet, because the team from Guadalajara sent América home after the elimination. Chivas will know its next rival after the conclusion of the two quarter-final games that will be played on Sunday.
