Last name Solar is recurring in the mexican football Y Santiago builds a path to give it a shine that its predecessors didn’t achieve since the coach’s first tournament of the America On Mexico it has been a fairytale.
Until Day 14, the Águilas de Santiago have 34 units and with 3 regular stage matches on the horizon, they could exceed the number of points awarded by the America from his uncle Jorge in the Summer 97when he was super leader with 37 units.
But Jorge Solari stuck with it as he was then eliminated in the quarter-finals In the regular tournament, he achieved 11 wins, the same one that Santiago already achieved in this Guard1anes 2021.
In fact, the America would add 37 units and be a solo leader if not for Date 7’s win against him Atlasas they won 2-0, but at the table they were defeated 3-0 by a rigorous penalty for misalignment. Federico Viñas he only warmed up with the team without signing up for the game. Before that, they had only lost against Striped on matchday 2.

NEXT TO JORGE, EDUARDO AND ESTEBAN WERE
Before you go to America, Jorge “Indio” Solari played at Torreón in 1972 and retired after that season before returning to Mexico and lead the Tecos without pain or glory, so that in the aforementioned summer 97 he was in charge of The Eagles.
Eduardo Solari, Santiago’s father, also directed Atlas, Celaya, Morelia and Rayados in Mexico, but in no tournament does he transcend the way his son does now Santiago, in a club of greater relevance.
For his part, Esteban Solari, brother of Santiago, also stood out in his first tournament in Mexico on reaching the final with the Cougars in the 2007 Apertura, aside from scoring 25 goals in 40 games during his entire stay.
