Cruz Azul Secures Dramatic 2-1 Victory Over Pumas in Clásico Joven

Mexico City, April 6, 2025 – In a thrilling edition of the Clásico Joven, Cruz Azul came from behind to defeat Pumas UNAM 2-1 at the Estadio Azteca, keeping their playoff hopes alive in Liga MX.

Pumas struck first in the 23rd minute when Argentine forward Eduardo Salvio capitalized on a defensive error, slotting the ball past Cruz Azul goalkeeper Sebastián Jurado. The visitors controlled much of the first half, frustrating La Máquina with their high press.

However, the second half saw a reinvigorated Cruz Azul side. Midfielder Carlos Rodríguez leveled the score in the 58th minute with a powerful strike from outside the box. The momentum shifted decisively when Pumas defender Nathan Silva was sent off for a second yellow card in the 72nd minute.

Taking advantage of the extra man, Cruz Azul’s veteran striker Gabriel Fernández headed in the winner from a corner in the 84th minute, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.

Key Takeaways:

Cruz Azul moves into 6th place, tightening their grip on a playoff spot.

Pumas’ struggles continue—they’ve now lost three of their last five matches.

Controversy: Pumas coach Rafael Puente Jr. criticized the refereeing, calling the red card 'harsh.'

Post-Match Reactions:

André Jardine (Cruz Azul coach): 'The team showed heart. We never gave up.'

Eduardo Salvio (Pumas): 'We let it slip. We have to fix our mistakes quickly.'

The result sets up a tense final stretch in Liga MX, with both teams fighting for postseason positioning. Cruz Azul’s next match is against América in another massive derby, while Pumas face Toluca in a must-win clash.
