Tonight, Cruz Azul faces Atlas in the Copa MX at 7 p.m. This game will be at Estadio Azul. Cruz Azul is 14 points away from breaking America’s record. If they win their next five matches ‘La Máquina’ would have a new record.

Cruz Azul needs an incentive so that they won’t fall in the last leg of the championship and enter in good rhythm to fight for the title. The records in points in short tournaments could be the perfect incentive for the team to have a great closing and they can break the record that now belongs to America.

To be able to break this record, Cruz Azul has to win their last five games of LIga. Atlas, América, Pachuca, Monarcas y Pumas would be victims of ‘La Máquina.’ The games against Atlas Pachuca, and Pumas would be played at home, where they have won eight games and have a perfect 8-0 record.

Maikon Leite recognizes that facing Cruz Azul means a great risk for their team because they will be facing the best team of the championship. It is a very difficult match, Cruz Azul is a team , but we have the team to fight against them. As a player you want more, always want to get better, we are in an uncomfortable situation and we have to get better as a team.”
