The situation of Xelajú MC has been complicated in the Clausura 2025. The current Guatemalan football champion is going through a critical moment, accumulating five consecutive games without knowing the victory, which has made it descend in the position table and light the alarms in the Quetzalteco club.
The bad streak began on Sunday, February 16, when Xelajú drew 0-0 against Marquense in a game very played at the Mario Camposeco stadium. Despite adding a point, the lack of goal and offensive depth were the first symptoms of the crisis that was coming.
The second blow came on day 10, when they visited Cobán Imperial at José Ángel Rossi to reissue the final of the last tournament. In a closed duel, The blue princes imposed 1-0 with a controversial penaltyleaving goats without reaction and adding their first defeat in this negative streak.
On Thursday, February 27, Xelajú played a reprogrammed match at the Cementos Progreso Stadium against Communications. The story seemed different, because the goats began winning, but in the second half Lynner García became the figure of creams, scoring a double that ended up sealing the 2-1 comeback in favor of the albos.
The most painful defeat until now arrived on Wednesday, March 5, When Achuapa thrashed Xelajú 3-0 at Mario Camposeco, in what became a hard blow for the fans and team. The lack of ideas in attack, the defensive errors and the dominance of the onion team left the Alteses in an obvious crisis.
The last setback happened last night at the Penative Stadium, where former GFC beat Xela by the minimum with a goal by Oscar Santis at minute 56. The defeat left goats without answers and showed that the team still does not find solutions to reverse their bad moment.
With this five -game streak without winning, Xelajú is currently in the eighth position with 12 points, the same amount as Achuapa, Mixco and Xinabajul, teams that are in the fight to avoid the last positions. Depending on the results of this day, the goats could descend to the tenth place, only above Xinabajul, which rests this day and cannot add.
The situation worries the fans Altense, who has gone from celebrating the title in the previous tournament to see his team in a crisis of results. Xelajú needs to react as soon as possible to avoid compromising its classification to the final phase and not falling into a position that moves it away from the fight for two -time championship.
