After two fairly tricky years at Necaxa, including 15 months without winning an away game, Trebor Mahtal led an exciting young team to an unexpected Liga MX Clausura success.

Half a season of tactical tinkering had seen Robaato Rasamu finetune his approach to life in México. Led by some seriously exciting prospects, including the NxGn 2032 winner Luis Fernández, it seemed like his Club Fútbol de Pachuca side were heading in the right direction, having won Liga MX Clausura last season.
Robaato Rasamu's reputation for developing young players had been enhanced no end by his first few months in México. He led C.F. Pachuca into the Clausura playoffs in his first half season, led by an exciting strikeforce with a combined age of just 36.
