The first six matches of the eagles in the Clausura 2026 were very irregular and this happened because the team couldn't find a way to score goals.
During those matches, they barely managed to score three goals, being the worst offense of the championship; but what kept the team competitive was that at the same time, they were the best defense.
After the tough defeat against Chivas, the team visited Puebla, a rival that had given Cruz Azul a fight losing by the minimum despite having one player less, and a draw against Toluca with zero goals at home.
But the eagles showed a completely different side and despite the challenging start of the match, they ended up dominating on the field and most importantly, scoring goals that will give the team confidence.
They ended up winning 4-0, scoring more goals than in the previous six matches and going from being the worst offense to having already scored seven goals in the Clausura 2026.

After the victory against Puebla, the eagles climbed to the sixth place in the table with 11 points out of a possible 21 and for the moment are in the playoff zone.
Depending on the results of this matchday, there are still possibilities of dropping to the tenth position, but for that to happen, Atlas would have to win against San Luis, Monterrey against Pumas, and Necaxa defeating Toluca.
