The illusion's once again present in the fans of Cruz Azul and in the entire team, as they return to a new final in the Liga MX. In this 2021 Guardians they will seek to end the 23-year drought in which they have not been able to obtain a Liga MX title.
This Guardians 2021 could mean a new title for La Máquina or another stumbling block in the search for a new title. This time they will face Santos Laguna, who has already been their executioner a few years ago in a final. Here we leave you the list of all the championships and how many finals Cruz Azul has played throughout its history. It should be noted that the cement producers have more runners-up than championships.
So far they have eleven falls in the final stages and eight championships. One of its greatest executioners and one that has formed a rivalry that increases as the years go by is America. Las Águilas have been in charge of leaving Azul with the desire for a championship in a final three times (1988/1989, Clausura 2013 and Apertura 2018). The list of lost finals is completed: Pumas, Chivas, Necaxa, Pachuca, Santos Laguna, Toluca and Monterrey.
