Cruz Azul Opens Apertura 2026 Match at Estadio Azteca with Low Attendance

Cruz Azul kicked off its Apertura 2026 campaign at Estadio Azteca, yet the match drew a surprisingly low crowd. Prior to the game, the club had been discussing a possible move from the iconic stadium, with rumors of a new home venue circulating.

Ultimately, the team agreed to host future matches at the Santa Úrsula complex, but the opening fixture faced criticism for its poor attendance. The lackluster turnout raised concerns about the club’s direction.
