Next Friday, within the Matchday 4, the duel between Necaxa and Cruz Azul, two teams between which a very special relationship has developed recently, since when Machine he threw away or failed to take advantage of some of the players he has, the Rays have put him to good use.
Necaxa exploits what Cruz Azul throws away
It is true that footballers sometimes do much better in one club than in another, but Necaxa in particular has been able to take advantage of some Blue cross He doesn’t know how to do it or what he simply didn’t get at La Noria.
First of all, there is the attacker Lucas Passerini; the Argentinian did not arrive until early 2020 Blue cross as one of the strong cards of Machine for that tournament. Surprisingly, and bearing in mind that the pandemic was crossed and the Closure of that year, Lucas Giuliano He had a very bad 30 minutes over four games in which he was not enough to score a goal.
At the end of that semester Passerini early to leave Blue cross, since there was no room in La Maquina. It was that then Necaxa He appeared, gave him the chance, and the Argentinian responded with 16 games, 14 of them as a starter, in which he played a total of 1,115 minutes and scored three goals in six months; not bad for a player who didn’t even have a chance to get in Machine, although it is already in San Luis.
Another example is that of the 20-year-old Mexican striker Daniel Lopez, WHO Necaxa acquired for this Guard1anes 2021, being a network breaker for La Maquina in the U-20 category in the final tournament, scoring 11 goals (nine in the regular season and two in the Liguilla). In La Noria, they didn’t even consider him to be part of the first team as he was one of the few notable that he had Blue cross in their basic powers.
Dani went to Necaxa and played three games with the Rayos in the First Division from the start, so far in Guard1anes 2021 (club with which he made his debut in the First Division), one of which was the starter for a total of 74 minutes played. While a Lopez Pinedo He misses the mark, he will definitely find it with more activity, while they never gave him a chance in Cruz Azul.
Necaxa denies objects of desire to The Machine: Unai Bilbao and Ían González
Another very special aspect of the relationship between Necaxa and Cruz Azul Lately, The Machine has focused a lot on players who have consolidated Necaxa. For this 2021, the cement workers have been pushing very hard for two Rayos players.
The two Spaniards, Unai Bilbao and Ían GonzálezThey were the object of Cruz Azul’s desire; the first power station and the second forward, lines where the cement producers suffer in this competition, because what were the intentions of the directive led by Jaime Ordiales to give more weight to the blues.
Nevertheless, Necaxa He managed to keep two of his pillars on the team very well and as much as Cruz Azul tried to get them to the point of negotiation, things just didn’t happen to the cement producers while the Rayos take advantage of some Machine don’t know how to explode.
