Total Domination in Apertura 2024
Cruz Azul is showing why they are the undisputed leaders of the 2024 Apertura tournament. With 34 points in just 13 matches, the celestes have claimed the top spot in the standings and are on the verge of breaking their own short-tournament record of 41 points. With 11 victories, one draw, and only one loss, Martín Anselmi’s squad is positioning itself as a top contender for the title.
Strength at Home and Away
The Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes has been a fortress for Cruz Azul, where they have secured 6 wins and 1 draw, earning 19 points at home. But their dominance extends beyond home turf, as Cruz Azul is also the best away team in the league, collecting 15 points with 5 victories and just one loss on the road.
Balanced Offense and Defense
Balance has been key to Cruz Azul’s success. They have scored 32 goals while conceding only 9, making them the top defensive team in the competition. Goalkeeper Kevin Mier has played every minute of the tournament and has been a key player in keeping opponents at bay. On the offensive side, Georgios Giakoumakis, Ángel Sepúlveda, and Carlos Rodolfo Rotondi have all shined, each scoring 6 goals.
