Mendoza made his debut on July 31, 2013, against León, and eventually became an undisputed starter in the club's starting-eleven. His best performance of the tournament came on August 24 against Morelia, where he scored a brace and had an assist in América's 3–1 victory in the Estadio Azteca. On December 14, 2014, Mendoza received a red card for mocking his opponents in the Liga MX final against Tigres UANL in which his team won 3–0.[1]
