CD Coyotes Neza is a Mexican football club from Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl , currently playing in the Tercera División , the fourth Mexican football league.
history
For the satellite town of Nezahualcóyotl east of Mexico City , several teams have already competed in the top division of Mexican football, the Primera División . It all started with Coyotes, which was founded in 1978 and was founded by the entrepreneur Anuar Maccise after he had acquired the first division license from the highly indebted CF Laguna .
The first coach was Carlos Armando Lara , who had previously looked after the CF Laguna team. After the opening defeat at Puebla FC (0-1) on September 10, 1978, the Coyotes celebrated their first victory in the first division a week later in their first home game, which was then still played at the Estadio 10 de diciembre . Opponent was the millionaire capital city club América and the golden goal for the 1-0 victory was scored by Mexican Rito Sotelo in the 89th minute. The goal was preceded by a penalty decision in which both the Americanistas goalkeeper Francisco Castrejón and their defender Rubén Cárdenas were sent off. Sotelo was one of several Coyotes players who had been taken over by CF Laguna along with the license.
In the seasons 1979/80 to 1981/82, the soccer team of Deportivo Coyotes Neza reached the play-off games for the Mexican championship three times in a row. After the club had already been eliminated twice in the quarter-finals, it achieved the greatest success in its club history in 1981/82 with the semi-finals against CF Atlante (0: 1 and 0: 0).
After that, the club did not move back into the play-offs and finally sold its first division license to the relegated UAT Correcaminos in 1988 after ten years of membership in the first division . Today he plays under the name Coyotes Neza in the fourth-class Tercera División , while Club Deportivo Neza, which played in the same Group 4 in the 2009/10 season, is a different club.
Just one year after Deportivo Coyotes Neza's withdrawal, a team named Potros Neza achieved promotion to the top division, but the club immediately sold its first division license to Veracruz .
It was not until 1993 that top division football came back to the rapidly growing satellite town with the rise of university footballers from the Universidad Tecnológico de Neza . This team named itself for their first division appearance in Toros Neza .
Venues
During the first division, the Coyotes played for three years in the Estadio Municipal de Texcoco and from 1981 to 1986 in the 28,500-seat Estadio José López Portillo . Since retiring from the first division, they have been playing at the Estadio Metropolitano .
