Cruz Azul suffered its worst defeat in history at the hands of America in matchday 10 of the Liga MX Opening 2022 tournament. The Celeste Machine fell to the Eagles in the Young Classic by a score of 7-0. This great failure led to the dismissal of Diego Aguirre and his coaching staff. In just over a year, the Celestes went from lifting their ninth league title to being a disappointing team.
The fans have pointed directly to the club’s board for their lousy planning work for this semester. Cruz Azul got rid of several key pieces in the last year and has not brought in reinforcements that are at the level of the players that left. To make matters worse, the hiring for the Apertura 2022 arrived once the tournament started and they have not yet shown their best level.
After the embarrassing performance of the Celeste Machine against America, the team’s players quietly left the vicinity of the Azteca Stadium. In a recording shared through social networks, you can see how the Cruz Azul players leave with their suitcases, but none dares to give statements after the historical result.
Julio César Domínguez, captain of the sky-blue team and one of the elements most criticized by the fans, also did not stop to offer any comments on the defeat.
With this result, Cruz Azul is in the penultimate position of the general table with eight units, product of two wins, two draws and six losses.
