Tijuana vs Cruz Azul Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

On August 17, Tijuana were hosting Cruz Azul in the Apertura of the Primera Division in Mexico. At full-time, Tijuana sealed a 2-1 victory over Cruz Azul.

Ignacio Rivero scored the first goal of the game on the 44th minute of the match, giving Tijuana the lead. Nicolas Ibanez and Gilberto Mora added to the score, setting the final scoreline at 2-1.

A sense of anticipation builds as Tijuana and Cruz Azul meet again, 4 months after their Primera Division Clausura match that concluded in a 1-1 stalemate. With losses to Portland Timbers, San Diego and Austin, Tijuana's form has dipped ahead of this clash, extending their winless streak to four games.

Cruz Azul's form has been disappointing as well, approaching this match after a defeat to Chicago Fire in the Leagues Cup on August 14. Their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have allowed goals in ten consecutive away matches.

Tijuana and Cruz Azul meet in Mexican League with their goal-scorers and playmakers ready to take on pivotal roles. Tijuana’s offensive unit, carefully orchestrated by Sebastian Abreu, has leaned on Mourad El Ghezouani, their main scorer, and Ramiro Arciga, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. With two goals in Mexican League, El Ghezouani is Tijuana’s top scorer in the league, as Mora continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with one assist. Alan Vega have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.

Meanwhile, Cruz Azul’s attacking options, shaped by Joel Huiqui’s vision, have been bolstered by Jeremy Marquez, the team’s top scorer, and Luka Romero, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. In Mexican League, Marquez has been Cruz Azul’s standout scorer with two goals, with Romero leading their creative tally in the league with two assists. Cruz Azul have also relied on Gabriel Fernandez, Carlos Rodriguez and Christian Ebere to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
