Monterrey

Club de Fútbol Monterrey is a Mexican football club from Monterrey, Nuevo León which currently plays in the Liga MX. Founded on 28 June 1945, it is the oldest active team in the professional division from the northern part of Mexico. The club is owned by FEMSA, Latin America's largest bottling company. Its home games have been played in the Estadio BBVA since 2015.

Monterrey has won four league titles, two domestic cups, and four CONCACAF Champions League titles (notably, three consecutive tournaments in 2011, 2012 and 2013). The team is commonly known as the Rayados (the striped ones), due to the club's traditional navy blue striped uniform. The uniform is reflected in the club's current crest, which is also decorated with stars above the crest representing the club's league titles and stars below the crest representing continental titles. In terms of overall performance, it is the strongest club from Mexico and all of CONCACAF at the FIFA Club World Cup, with a 5th-place ranking in the all-time table.
