Cruz Azul stuck in a poor run against Atlas | OneFootball

Cruz Azul accumulated their sixth consecutive match without being able to beat Atlas, being the worst streak of the club against the red and blacks in Liga MX.

Eduardo Aguirre has been key in this hegemony, participating in 60% of Atlas' goals in five of those matches.

It all started in the Clausura 2023 repechage, shortly before Aguirre was announced as a reinforcement for the sky blue team.

However, after failing the medical exams, his arrival at Cruz Azul was frustrated and he ended up signing with Atlas.

Since then, 'Mudo' has become a nightmare for La Máquina, scoring four goals and providing two assists in the last five encounters.

He only missed the first one of this streak, when he was not yet playing with the Tapatíos.

Aguirre was not the only frustrated signing, as Matheus Dória was also close to arriving that summer of 2023.

The Brazilian, although he played less, also left his mark with a goal against Cruz Azul on Matchday 2 of the Apertura 2025.
