Cruz Azul shows up in front of their fans after being eliminated from the Leagues Cup in the Round of 16 by Charlotte FC. They drew 0-0 during the regular 90 minutes and then lost 3-4 in the penalty shootout.
In the domestic competition, La Máquina is also struggling. They are currently last in the standings, having lost all three of their matches, with a goal difference of six against and only one in favor. In their previous league game, they were defeated 2-1 by Tijuana in an away match.
Los Cementeros haven’t won an away game since June 21st, when they beat Juárez 3-1. Since then, they have recorded two draws and five losses on the road. The most concerning part is that they failed to score in three of their last six matches.
