There are four historic clubs in Mexican football with the label, but arguing about which team is 'bigger' misses the point
It's grande vs. ... not grande ... when Cruz Azul welcomes Tigres to the Estadio Azteca on Saturday in the matchup of the weekend in Liga MX.
Except, it's not always entirely clear who the grande is. There are four in Mexican soccer, labeled as such thanks to their historic success and enormous popularity throughout the country: Club America, Chivas, Pumas and Cruz Azul. Yet this weekend's matchup shows the absurdity of the whole idea.
Cruz Azul's last title came back in 1997.
