Club Deportivo Guadalajara, also known as Guadalajara, usually referred to by its nickname Chivas (Goats), is the most successful Mexican football club.
Guadalajara is the only football club in Mexico's history to exclusively field Mexican born players. It plays in the Primera División de México, and is one of the only two teams in Mexico that have never been relegated to the 2nd Division. Its biggest rival is América (see el Superclásico), along with Chivas, the two most popular and supported clubs in Mexico, and their meetings signal the national derby. The team's popularity in the U.S. has led to the creation of a Major League Soccer expansion club in the United States, Chivas USA, which was initially to be comprised of Mexican and Mexican-American players (but now features a roster similar to other MLS clubs). On December 10, 2006 Guadalajara won its 11th professional championship, the most in Mexican football history.
