The Clásico de México on Matchday 12 of the Clausura 2024 was very special for Antonio Briseño, as he reached a considerable number of matches with Guadalajara by playing his 100th Liga MX match with the red and white jersey, and he did it in nothing less than a match as important as Chivas vs. América.
Since his arrival to the fold, the 'Pollo' has been characterized as being a dedicated guy at all times, from training to matches, in addition to being a player who supports the younger players in the squad. This leadership has made him one of the team's captains and, on the occasion of his 100 games with Chivas, here are 5 things you probably didn't know about his time with the Chiverío.
1. During his 100 league games with El Rebaño, Antonio Briseño has scored 4 goals in the national championship. Three of them were headers, with assists from Isaac Brizuela, Roberto Alvarado, and Víctor Guzmán. The remaining goal was scored with his right foot, on a pass from Ricardo Marín. As a curious fact, the center-back has scored 1 more goal in the Leagues Cup against Cincinnati and it was also with his head.
Who has he scored against?
- Chivas vs Tigres in Game Day 2 of AP19
- León vs Chivas in Game Day 1 of AP23
- Chivas vs Bravos in CL24 Game Day 6
- Chivas vs Pumas in Game Day 8 of CL24
If we add Copa MX, Leagues Cup, and Concacaf Champions Cup, 'Pollo' has 109 official games with the Rebaño, as he played 3 in the cup competition, 2 in the tournament against MLS teams, and 4 in the Concachampions.
3. The tournament in which Briseño played the most minutes was in the Guard1anes 2021, as he accumulated 1135 between the regular phase and the Liguilla.
4. He is 1 of the 2 players who played all the minutes in the Champions Cup 2024, as he was on the field for all 360 minutes of play.
5. As one of the captains of the Rebaño Sagrado, he already wore the badge in the current tournament. In the match against Cruz Azul on Matchday 10, he received it from Erick Gutiérrez at 57'.
