Ascenso MX

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Liga de Ascenso has been the second highest division in Mexican club football since the 2009/10 season . In this capacity she replaces the Primera División 'A' , which had taken this role in the 15 seasons between 1994/95 and 2008/09.

The overall champion of the Liga de Ascenso is eligible for promotion to the Primera División , while the bottom of the table must relegate to the Segunda División .

The previous champions of the Liga de Ascenso (Ascenso MX)

Two championships are played per season and two separate winners (Apertura and Clausura) are determined. If a team wins both tournaments (as Necaxa managed to do in the opening season), it is automatically overall winner and entitled to promotion to the Primera División . If there are two different winners, they will play the promotion finals in a return match at the end of the season.

season Master / overall winner Master Apertura Master Clausura
2009/10 Necaxa Necaxa Necaxa
2010/11 Tijuana Tijuana Irapuato
2011/12 Leon Correcaminos Leon
2012/13 La Piedad La Piedad Neza
2013/14 Leones Negros Leones Negros Estudiantes Tecos
2014/15 Dorados Necaxa Dorados
2015/16 Necaxa Juarez Necaxa
2016/17 Lobos BUAP Dorados Lobos BUAP
2017/18 Cafetaleros Tapachula 1 Alebrijes Oaxaca Cafetaleros Tapachula
2018/19 Atlético San Luis Atlético San Luis Atlético San Luis

1 Because the Cafetaleros de Tapachula are not a certified team with promotion rights to Liga MX , there will be no promoted or relegated team in 2018 (the actual relegated Lobos BUAP thus remains in the top division).
