'Tito' Villa praises Ángel Sepúlveda's hard work | OneFootball

Emanuel 'Tito' Villa, a former soccer player and now a TUDN analyst, praised the great moment Ángel Sepúlveda is going through with Cruz Azul, highlighting him as one of the team's most consistent figures.

In an interview with RÉCORD+, Villa stated: "He's a tireless fighter, the years have been good to him, and Cruz Azul is taking advantage of it."

Tito compared Sepúlveda's football maturity to that of Henry Martín, América's striker, who also reached his best version around the age of 30.

"Goals are loves... 'El Cuate' has matured a lot, just like Henry when he started to shine seriously."

The analyst emphasized that both players share a path of gradual evolution: "He was a guy who built himself up year after year, maybe without many goals at first, but always committed upfront."

According to Villa, that consistency has been key to his takeoff.

So far in the Apertura 2025, Sepúlveda started without scoring against Mazatlán, but he stood out with a hat-trick against Atlas in Matchday 2, which reinforces his good moment and consolidates him as an offensive reference for La Máquina.
