After defeating Rayados Saturday night by a final of 1-0, Cruz Azul now find themselves on a 9-game winning streak, the second largest in franchise history. If they defeat the surging Atlas next weekend at home, they will have tied their longest streak in franchise history of 10 consecutive victories, achieved only by the 1971-72 squad. And what an impressive feat it would be. During this span, they’ve defeated teams such as Tigres, Toluca, León, as well as their latest victim, Rayados. In other words, it’s been no walk in the park. They’ve faced some tough teams they’ve dealt with accordingly.
Cruz Azul’s 9-game winning streak: Fool’s gold?
