Club Deportivo Cruz Azul Hidalgo, also known as Cruz Azul Hidalgo, was a professional football club in Mexico who last played in the Liga Premier league of Mexico. Their stadium was the Estadio 10 de Diciembre located in Ciudad Cooperativa Cruz Azul (previously name the town of Jasso) in Hidalgo and was the affiliate team of Cruz Azul. The team dissolved in 2014 after Zacatepec 1948 bought their spot to remain in Ascenso MX.[3] But has a team in the Liga Premier de Ascenso, replace Cruz Azul Jasso.

History

This filial team began participating in the Apertura 2006 tournament at Shoal Zone Second Division, under the name of Cruz Azul Hidalgo. Changed its name to Cruz Azul Jasso due to change of venue of the now defunct Cruz Azul Hidalgo Oaxaca to the entity, who took the name of Cruz Azul Hidalgo. Cruz Azul Jasso was champion of the Second Division in the 2007 Clausura tournament.

In 2014 the team was bought by the owners of Zacatepec 1948, who used the franchise to give continuity to their team in the Ascenso MX.[4] However, after this movement, Cruz Azul Jasso, which played in the Liga Premier de Ascenso, was renamed Cruz Azul Hidalgo to ensure the team's permanence in a category below the one it was active in until that year. The club was runner-up in the division in the Clausura 2015 and 2020–21 tournaments.

At the end of 2020, Cruz Azul had changes in its board of directors, so an austerity policy was initiated with the aim of eliminating the club's debts, for this reason, the continuity of the Cruz Azul Hidalgo team began to be questioned, finally, in June 2021 the dissolution of the club was announced.[1]

Stadium

The Estadio 10 de Diciembre was created for Cruz Azul until they moved to Mexico City leaving it without a team. Cruz Azul Jasso then started playing there. The stadium can hold 17,000 comfortably and the stands offer some good shade.
