Cruz Azul and Mazatlán Clash in Leagues Cup Round of 16

Leagues Cup 2024 is heating up as Cruz Azul will face Mazatlán FC in the Round of 16, and both teams will have to fight for their spot in the quarterfinals. The match will be held at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. This will be a unique event where two Mexican teams from Liga MX will come head to head on foreign turf.

Cruz Azul is a classical “big” team in Mexican football and probably entered the Leagues Cup as a favorite. The team was able to qualify for the next stage, but they ended up finishing second. Furthermore, there is something puzzling about Cruz Azul’s performance in the tournament. All of their matches ended up in penalties, which makes one doubt their power in the current Leagues Cup.

Mazatlán is the team that can be quite unpredictable. If considering their performance in the Liga MX, one can say that they play quite poorly, but now they may surprise many. Once Victor Manuel Vucetich’s team had to fight Nashville, and they won. After that, the Mexican team faced DC United, and they were able to assure fans.

This Round of 16 fixture will be quite intriguing as both teams have just as much to fight for. The event will be shown live on Apple TV+, and fans in Mexico can watch the match on Azteca 7.
