ToggleMiguel Layún, former América player, responded to the criticism made by former Chivas player Antonio Briseño towards Las Águilas. The current Toluca defender insisted that América is a team that is very protected.
Layún refuted Briseño, saying "América is the team with the most pressure in the country, from the fans, the media, etc. Here, those who are not mentally prepared crack, those who are, become stars."

Briseño had said that the pressure is bigger at Chivas than at América, something Layún refuted. Layún added that to be successful with the Águilas, a player must be well-prepared mentally.
He won three titles during his two stints with the team. After a brilliant first spell in which he won two Liga MX championships, he was able to establish a career in European football.
"They criticized me and I endured it," Layún said. "No one protected me, no one took care of me, it was my family and me vs the situation."
In his two stints with the Azulcremas, Layún faced Chivas 12 times in the Clásico, recording five victories, three draws, and four losses for the club.
