MexicoTV is the only network to bring Mexico’s Liga de Ascenso to the Mexican soccer audiences in the U.S. Mexico TV is available on DirecTV Mas programming package and also on Comcast, Time Warner Cable.

Necaxa is the team with a reputation in Mexico, fighting for a comeback longed for by its many thousands of fans, but also the teams blocking its way who are also determined to get there first, at all cost, come what may.

Like Veracruz, in years past the First Division pace-setter, famed for the passion and loyalty of its fans, which has hired a player who is now without question Mexico’s hottest soccer icon: Cuauhtemoc Blanco. He is hated by a heavy majority of Mexican fandom when he plays for the Club America team, or any other rival – but when he plays for Mexico’s national team, that hate turns into boundless love.

Another team committed to winning is Irapuato, current leader of the 2010 League, tied with Necaxa and separated only by a difference of goals scored. These teams have been battling each other in one of the most exciting finals in the League’s recent history, going to the terminal stage of penalty kicks to decide who will come out the winner.

Necaxa, Veracruz, Irapuato, Leon, Orizaba, Pumas Morelos, Tijuana, Correcaminos, Durango and Atlante UTN are the most popular teams to paly for Mexico’s 2010 Liga de Ascenso.
