The Club America vs Cruz Azul Liga MX quarterfinal match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Las Aguilas host La Maquina at the Estadio Azteca this Thursday, May 9, 2019, at 7:00 PM Pacific.
Club America had an underwhelming 2019 Clausura tournament, finishing in fifth place with 29 points. Los Azulcremas finished off the season with a 2-0 win against Veracruz, but did only have one win in four games before that result.
Star striker Nicolas Castillo did not exceed expectations with only five goals in the season, but America’s overall team is very well-balanced and talented. The midfield is arguably Miguel Herrera’s strongest component with players like Mateus Uribe and Guido Rodriguez that make Las Aguilas a force.
Cruz Azul had a great finish to the season and ended up in fourth place with 30 points on the league table. Los Celestes finished with a 10-game undefeated streak in league play and were able to win five games in this run.
Like Club America, there is not a specific player that stands out on Pedro Caixinha’s roster, but rather a well-balanced overall squad. However, Milton Caraglio will be the key player to watch for La Maquina as he finished the season with 11 goals.
