Asturias F.C. was a Mexican association football club that played in the ''Liga Mexicana de Football Amateur Association'' prior to the professionalization and development of the Mexican first division. Asturias F.C. would overcome Real Club España, club along which were known as the foreign legion (Legión extranjera) . In the 1943–1944 league after finishing with a similar record. The first final in the Mexican professional league was won by Asturias F.C. after beating Real Club España 4–1 and thus becoming the first champion in the professional era. The club was managed by Ernesto Pauler. Besides having the honour of being the first champion in the professional league, Asturias also holds the record for most Copa Mexico wins with 8. ==History== Centro Asturiano de México was founded on 7 February 1918 when a group of Asturian migrants made up by José Menéndez Aleu, Ángel H. Díaz and Antonio Martínez got together and decided to establish a football club that would represent their Asturian heritage. The main goal was to unite all the Spaniards who had emigrated from Asturias to Mexico, and so imitatively the club enrolled into the Primera Fuerza but the league would only admit the club if they beat Germania FV, Club América and Tigres. They managed to beat Germania FV 3–0, Tigres 1–0 but only drew 3–3 against Club América, so the club would not be allowed to join the league. The club decided to form its own league calling it Unión Nacional de Association Foot-Ball. The league would be played in the Campo Asturias which was constructed in the Paseo de la Reforma in Mexico City. The league would not charge any fee to watch the games, which encouraged locals to attend this league and not the Primera Fuerza. With this problem in hand the Primera Fuerza changed its mind and allowed the club to take part in the upcoming 1919 tournament. In 1920 the club hired Scottish former player Gerald Brown and the club managed to wins its first tournament by winning the 1920 Copa Covadonga. In 1921 the club changed its name to Sección Deportiva del Centro Asturiano. This club would go on to win important cups like the Copa Centenario in 1921. The club would also win the most Copa Mexico in its history before being dissolved in 1996 winning a total of eight, one more than Necaxa. This cluib also had the honour of being the first champion in the professional era after financing the 1943–44 tournament tied with Real Club España, where a decisive game had to play in the Asturias Park where the club defeated Real Club España 4–1. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Asturias F.C.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
