Cruz Azul pulls away from Chivas in official Mexican football titles: just one remains
The latest trophy lifts La Máquina clear of one historic rival and moves the club closer to the all-time record for official titles.
Cruz Azul cemented its place among the giants of Mexican soccer after defeating Toluca 3-1 in Carson, California, to win the Campeón de Campeones and become the outright champion of Mexican soccer. The latest triumph takes the club’s total to 28 official trophies, making it the second-most successful team in Mexican soccer history.
The 28th title in Cruz Azul’s history came with the Campeón de Campeones crown, officially recognizing the club as the champion of the 2025-26 season. The victory moves La Máquina two trophies ahead of Guadalajara, a club it had been tied with until just two months ago.
