Cruz Azul suffers a great loss with the departure of Martín Anselmi, their Argentine coach. The team's sports director, Iván Alonso, speaks about the departure of his coach and calls the situation a betrayal. "I put Martín's name on the table, and his departure hurt us all because of what we had built in that year. I felt like Martín had abandoned us, he had built a lot in the team", said Alonso in an exclusive interview for ESPN. The Cruz Azul fan base quickly reacted on social media, where many share Alonso's feelings. The sense of betrayal is palpable in La Noria, especially because the team was showing great progress with Anselmi at the helm. The Argentine coach had led the team to a great victory in the last match, making the news of his departure even more painful. "The departure of Martín hurt us all because of what we had built in that year", repeated Alonso in his interview. The situation is complicated for Cruz Azul, which now must find a new coach to lead the team to victory. The search for a new coach will be a significant challenge for the team, which is already suffering from Anselmi's absence.
