The Club de Fútbol Pachuca , also called Pachuca for short after its hometown , is a Mexican football club that plays in the Mexican Primera División .

The team, founded in Pachuca in 1901, is the oldest football club in the Mexican Primera División. He also likes to describe himself as the oldest football club in existence in the country, but is in conflict with the city of Orizaba , which also claims that Orizaba AC is the oldest football team in Mexico.

history

At the end of 1901, English technicians and miners from the company "Real de Monte" founded the Pachuca Athletic Club in Pachuca , the legal predecessor of today's CF Pachuca.

In the beginning the English influences were predominant, because it was not until 1908 that a Mexican played in the team for the first time. But by 1915 the team consisted mostly of locals. During the 1920/21 season, the successful team, which was serial champions in the state of Hidalgo between 1917 and 1920, disintegrated because most of the players had been transferred to Mexico City for professional reasons . This resulted in a temporary dissolution of the association.

It was only with the introduction of the second division in the 1950/51 season that the club, now taking the name of CF Pachuca , was revived. After winning the second division championship in 1966/67, Pachuca was allowed to play in the Primera División for the first time in the following years. After relegation in 1973, however, they disappeared for 19 years from the top division before two further seasons in the first division (1992/93 and 1996/97) were each limited to one year.

Only since the 1998/99 season has Pachuca been playing permanently in the first division again and is currently experiencing the most successful era in the club's history. Since then, the club has won five championship titles (its first ever in the professional era), three times the CONCACAF Champions' Cup and once the Copa Sudamericana .
