Cruz Azul closed out the Apertura season with a dominating 3-1 win over Club America Saturday at Estadio Azul.

Emanuel Villa put La Maquina on the board with a first-minute header, and finished with a brace to help Cruz Azul (8-5-2, 29 pts) to a second-place finish in the final standings.

Villa’s goals sandwiched a 62nd-minute tally by Javier Orozco, who sealed the win off Javier Aquino’s second assist of the match. Daniel Montenegro saved America – who finished second from the bottom of the table at 3-6-8 (15 pts) – from a shutout by converting a penalty kick in the 80th minute.
