Club América are the only team to have won all of their games in the Apertura 2023 Femenil, and a large part of that is down to Andrea Pereira, who has contributed heavily with goals so far.

The Azulcremas have played seven games so far this season, and Pereira has scored 6 goals.

Which teams has Pereira scored against?

In the 7 games, Pere has put the ball in the back of the net 6 times. Her goals have come against Pumas, Santos, Toluca, Atlas, Cruz Azul and, most recently, León, where the defender whipped the ball over the free-kick wall and into the top corner.

The large number of goals, naturally, have placed the former Barça centre-back in the upper echelons of the top scorers chart in the league. Right now, she is within the top 5, only behind Christina Burkenroad, Maricarmen Reyes and Lizbeth Ovalle, as well as being above her teammates Martínez, González and Luebbert.

She is also ahead of 5 teams in the league in terms of goalscoring numbers: Santos, Juárez, Atlas and Mazatlán.

Club América Femenil’s record in the 2023 Apertura

Club América sit top of the league with 7 wins from 7 and 21 points on the board. They have scored a whopping 32 goals in that time, which is the most in the league, after Tigres.

In terms of their defence, Pereira is not doing too badly either as her side have only let the ball in their own net 7 times, but the huge scoreline on the other side of the board means that no result - except the game against León, where América were reduced to 10 players - looked to be in jeopardy.
