Ricardo Ferretti slams Club América: 'They have only beaten dead teams'
Ricardo Ferretti has questioned Club América's recent winning streak, insisting that Guillermo Almada's side has yet to face a major challenge.
Football expert Ricardo Ferretti has sparked debate by criticizing the recent performance of Club América under new head coach Guillermo Almada. Speaking on ESPN's Generación Futbol, Ferretti cast doubt on the significance of the club's positive start, arguing that the quality of their opposition has been insufficient.

Ferretti was firm in his analysis of the five victories the team has secured across recent official matches. He insisted that while the statistical results are positive, the level of the opponents faced during this early stage does not confirm that the team has become a dominant force in the league.
Club América's recent run includes a 1-0 victory over Querétaro, a draw against Atlante, and a 3-0 win against Santos Laguna. In the Leagues Cup, they maintained their form with 3-1 victories over San Diego FC and the Portland Timbers. Despite this unbeaten streak, Ferretti maintains that the project led by Almada must prove itself against higher-tier rivals before any serious conclusions about their potential can be drawn.
