There were calls, Cruz Azul player uncovers the odd fix in the duel against Pumas

More than two years have passed since one of the most famous comebacks in Liga MX, that Guardianes 2020 semifinal in which Pumas beat Cruz Azul 4-0 in a match that meant the goodbye of Robert Dante Siboldi and that was later seen involved in controversy when it was pointed out that there were some strange circumstances in the duel played at the Estadio Olímpico Universitario.

After the painful defeat of the Máquina Celeste, the journalist Héctor Huerta came to report that there were some calls inside the Cruz Azul dressing room, which would have given some indications that ended up causing the disaster of those from La Noria and the spectacular somersault of Pumas.

Now, after having raised the long-awaited ninth with Cruz Azul, a player who was present at that match finally spoke and revealed that there were some very strange things that ended up harming the team for the second leg of that semifinal. It was the Paraguayan Pablo Aguilar who finally said something about those rumors and revealed that things did happen within the team.

“There are things that one does not know that happened in there. We had a style of play that worked in the first game and then they came and changed the second. There were little details that I don't want to talk about, but things happened in the locker room and they changed the way we played half an hour after the start of the game. They blamed him (Robert Dante Siboldi), but it wasn't his fault. There was a manager who got involved in the approach to the game,” said Pablo Aguilar, a former Cruz Azul player.

Did they harm Cruz Azul?

That semifinal will always be remembered by Cruz Azul fans as it was a very painful defeat that caused sadness and anger for many. Now with these statements, the sky-blue will surely be more angry with someone in particular, since although Pablo Aguilar did not mention which manager was the one who got involved in the game plan, the journalist Edu Torres points out that it could be Jaime Ordiales, who at that time He was then the sports president of the club and the one who left the institution to occupy a place in the Mexican National Team.
