Blue Crossone of the great champions of Mexican soccer in recent years, going through a bad streak. La Máquina is in the low places of Aztec soccer and without a stable process. In the midst of so many sports problems, Carlos Hermosillo asks to bring a player like Lionel Messi and follow in the footsteps of Inter Miami.
Ricardo Ferrettione of the most respected coaches in Mexican soccer, he could not oil the Machine during the months he was in command. This motivated the departure of Tuca. The club’s board of directors has tried to turn its present around, but the legendary Carlos Hermosillo believes that the problems could be solved with the arrival of an established footballer.
“I insist that Cruz Azul needs a media coup, it requires a renowned striker, not a renowned strikernot of a striker who comes to make his name in Mexico, who has forcefulness, “said the former soccer player in an interview with the newspaper Récord.
Follow in the footsteps of Inter Miami
Carlos Hermosillo used as an example the repowered Inter Miami with the arrival of Lionel Messi. Interestingly, this comparison is not that far-fetched. Cruz Azul has one of the best teams in Liga MXjust like Inter had before the arrival of the Albiceleste captain.
“That media coup can be very interesting to raise, as Inter Miami did, they were last place in the MLS, Lionel Messi arrived and they were champions in the Leagues Cup”, he explained.
However, there is something that Carlos Hermosillo does not take into account. The Inter Miami revolution was not only generated with the arrival of Lionel Messi at the club. David Beckham’s team reinforced specific areas in their squad: the defense with Jordi Alba, the midfield with Sergio Busquets and the bench with Gerardo Martino.
How is Cruz Azul doing in Mexican soccer?
Cruz Azul comes from getting a breather in Liga MX after overcoming 1-2 to Rayados de Monterrey. However, this was not enough to catapult him up the standings. The Machine runs on the sixteenth position in Liga MX. The Cementero team accumulates a victory, a draw and four defeats.
The next game for those led by Joaquín Moreno Garduño will be this Saturday, September 2 in a duel in which they will face the Águilas del América. Cruz Azul will play this commitment at home in the Azteca Stadium and will seek to continue climbing positions in the table without the need for “his own Lionel Messi”.
