After 23 years, Mexican giants Cruz Azul became league champions for the 9th time in their history. True to their traditions, they instantly updated their crest by adding a 9th commemorative star.
Many Mexican teams have stars in their logo
Cruz Azul's logo consists of a blue cross in a white circle surrounded by a red square, with the club's name above and below. It stayed relatively consistent since its foundation in 1920., As years went by and titles were won, the crest was modified to proclaim the Cruz Azul's achievements, adding a larger blue circle/frame after the 1971–72 season showing three stars for each Liga MX championship win (showing eight stars since the end of the 1997 season, and now nine stars).
