Through various videos circulated on social networks, you can see that Cruz Azul fans have a beating fight with personnel from the Private Security of the Azteca Stadium, where the match took place.

However, these people only arrived to separate a lawsuit that was already taking place between two groups. It can even be clearly seen that a gentleman is brutally beaten while he is on the floor. Kicks, punches and punches.

Agents of the Ministry of Citizen Security arrived in the area of the incident without violence, and to try to calm the spirits. The protection group advanced with their shields in the rain until the lawsuit was diluted.

Another video highlighted that the fight began in tunnel 9, where Cruz Azul fans tried to advance in the middle of a group of police officers. From the area you can clearly see that a wounded man comes out, who has all his face bleeding, and his shirt the same.

The dialogues are not clear, but you can hear various cries from both sides, and also from women who were present in the place, and who begged that the confrontation on the northern esplanade stop.

For its part, Liga Mx confirmed that the lawsuit was in the area of tunnel 9 between fans of the home team who were “upset by the result” and attacked policemen who were protecting order.

“The police restrained and dispersed the dissatisfied. There were no detainees,” they reported during the statement circulated on their official Twitter @LigaBBVAMX.

Finally, the representatives of the Mexican League reiterated “their rejection of violence inside and outside the stadiums and calls on the fans to maintain order, respect and healthy coexistence.”

The local team, La Máquina de la Cruz Azul, only shared the publication and written explanations in the statement by the Mexican League; so far no details or actions have been provided by the cemeteros.

The Ministry of Citizen Security of Mexico City only indicated the deployment of the Estadio Seguro operation in accesses and stands in the Aztec State, but has not provided any information on the violent actions.

It is also unknown whether the man who was seriously injured and who can be seen in both videos and photographs, was assisted by the security of the place, or if he left without being diagnosed and operated on.

Atlético San Luis gave the big surprise of the day about the end of the first half of their match against Cruz Azul, at Estadio Azteca, as Ricardo Chavez scored the only goal of the match to win the match, leaving a record of 4 games won out of his last 5 games played.

San Luis was ahead of the end of the first half when Venezuelan Jhon Murillo sent a pass from left wing to Chavez, who entered the area eluded the goalkeeper and converted with a low shot.

Thanks to that good moment, the Atlético de Madrid branch in Mexico already has 23 points, with which it ranks tenth with one date remaining on the calendar.

Cruz Azul stumbled for the second time in his last three matches and remains with 24 units, on the sixth step and also qualified. This is the fifth defeat at home for the Machine, which matches what happened to it in the 2016 Clausura, so far its worst performance in short tournaments.
