Club Necaxa
Club Necaxa is a historic Mexican professional football club currently based in Aguascalientes, competing in the top-tier Liga MX and playing its home games at Estadio Victoria. Founded in 1923 in Mexico City by Scottish engineer William H. Fraser, the club was originally tied to the Light and Power Company and earned the nickname "Los Electricistas" before moving to its current city in 2003. As one of the founding members of Mexico’s first professional league, Necaxa has amassed an impressive trophy cabinet, including three Liga MX titles, four Copa MX trophies, and international honors like the CONCACAF Champions Cup and a third-place finish at the 2000 FIFA Club World Championship. The team's early decades were marked by a pioneering spirit—fielding players regardless of race or nationality—and a fierce rivalry with Atlante, highlighted by a memorable 9–0 victory in the 1930s. Notably, the club's colors and crest reflect the cultural legacy of the Cornish community in Mexico, and it holds the distinction of being the best-placed Mexican club (7th overall) in the IFFHS ranking of North and Central American clubs of the 20th century.
