América Femenil finishes fourth in the Concacaf Champions League after being humiliated by the Thorns.

Club América Femenil 's participation in the 2025 edition of the Concacaf Women's Champions Cup ended with a 3-0 loss to the Portland Thorns , a result that left the Mexican team in fourth place in the continental tournament. The match, played on American soil, represented another setback for the team led by Ángel Villacampa, who also recently lost the 2025 Clausura Final in the Liga MX Femenil .
During the first half, América showed initiative on offense and generated several opportunities in the opponent's box. The clearest came in the 15th minute, when Scarlett Camberos eluded her marker, but chose to look for a back pass instead of shooting, an action that was intercepted by the defense. Portland responded a minute later with a shot from Payton Linnehan that crashed off the crossbar.
Coapa tried to press from the wings. Priscila da Silva had a chance in the 20th minute with a cross from the left, but she couldn't connect. She left the field shortly afterward with a physical injury. Camberos again created danger in the 27th minute with a run down the left, although her shot ended up in the hands of goalkeeper Morgan Messner .

The U.S. team opened the scoring in the 43rd minute. Carissa Boeckman sent in a cross from the right wing that Pietra Tordin calmly controlled to finish past goalkeeper Itzel Velasco . In the second half, Portland extended their lead in the 51st minute with an individual play by Linnehan , who finished inside the box after a cutback.
América tried to react with a long-range shot from Irene Guerrero in the 54th minute, but the ball went over the goal. Portland sealed the match in the 80th minute when Olivia Moultrie took advantage of a rebound in the box to score the third goal. Velasco had previously prevented a goal with a save against Caiya Hanks .
With this result, América Femenil closes out a title-less campaign. Ángel Villacampa 's future is in doubt, as his contract has expired, and the board has begun exploring other options. Interest has been mentioned in coaches with licenses issued by UEFA or those from the United States , while those who have completed the ENDIT in Mexico have been ruled out.
