Mexico City. Cruz Azul is the reflection of his coach. In 11 matches of the Liga Mx, it has reached that point where all its players interpret match situations and compete with a remarkable level, it does not seem easy. All from the ideas of the Argentine Martín Anselmi. Their fans at the Ciudad de los Deportes stadium know this so well that they allow themselves to fill the stands like few others. Today’s 3-0 victory against Necaxa, on matchday 11 of the Liga Mx, demonstrated the confidence inspired by a team that knows what it is playing.
Not even 10 minutes had passed when Alexis Gutiérrez, assisted by a pass from Luis Romo over the crescent, scored 1-0 in the necaxista goal (8). It was like watching The Machine on a two-way pool table. Romo struck first, the ball passed through the middle of the defenders and the midfielder from Guanajuato, one-on-one against goalkeeper Ezequiel Unsain, scored a low cross. The advantage did not flip the home switch, but rather expanded its circuits.
With that competitive pulse, Carlos Rotondi later scored the second from the same wing, but this time with Gutiérrez as an assist. The Argentine left behind the mark of Emilio Lara and Alán Montes, and connected a powerful left foot shot to Usain’s far post after a recovery by Lorenzo Faravelli (20) from Rosario. Since a short result does not suit La Maquina, Anselmi changed the arrangement of his elements a thousand times: 5-4-1, 5-3-2, 4-5-1. With this, Cruz Azul then became a living organism, a chameleon-like squad that ended in the second half with a blurred Rayos.
Faravelli rounded off the night with 3-0 when he received a pass from Carlos Rodríguez that left him alone in front of the goal (63). His only luxury was to raise his instep and cross the ball before Unsain came out. From then on, there was only one raucous song in the stadium, the “Azuuul, Azuuul!” that has already become customary. The light blues reached 28 points and closed another week as leaders of the tournament, with a way of playing that does not allow comparisons. Necaxa, downcast, was left with 13 units.
