History
This section needs additional citations for verification. (July 2021) |
Club Deportivo Marathón was founded on 25 November 1925 in San Pedro Sula by Eloy Montes and a group of his friends.[2] Ever since, Marathón has become one of the most prestigious clubs in Honduras, winning multiple titles. Club Deportivo Marathón has its own sporting venue that has different fields for the first team all the way to the lower youth levels, and even a tennis cement based foosball lit for night games. The venue has since improved through the years by the support of Friends of the Marathón Group (GAMA) and the different boards of directors through the years.
First title (1979)
The club would win its first title in 1979, under the orders of Ángel Ramón Rodríguez. With figures like Roberto Bailey, Arturo Bonilla, Francisco Javier Toledo, Celso Güity, Efraín Osorio, Ramón Osorio, René Suazo, Jorge Alberto Bueso, Félix Carranza, Jorge Phoyoú, Alberto Merelles, and Juan Carlos Wéber among others, the club remained in first place in the regular season standings. Having secured their classification to the final, El Monstruo Verde defeated Pumas UNAH 2–0 over two legs.
Second title (1985)
It took six years for Marathón to win another championship. This was achieved in 1985. At that time, Gonzalo Zelaya of La Ceiba was the team coach. In the regular season, Marathón was second in their group behind C.D. Olimpia on goal difference. In the final round, Marathón was the champion with 4 wins, 1 draw and only 1 loss to rivals: Vida, Motagua and Olimpia. In the deciding match in San Pedro Sula at the Estadio Francisco Morazán, Marathón faced off with Vida. With a goal from Roy Padilla Bardales, the emerald outfit won 1–0 and was crowned league champion for the second time.
Third title (2002)
Marathón had a drought of nearly 17 years without a league title. However, at the beginning of the new century, the club began having a resurgence. This is due to that, in 2001, the Honduran coach Chelato Uclés, began a major renovation project. Forming a team without many big name players, Uclés led Marathón to the top once again, establishing El Monstruo Verde as one of the strongest teams in the league. Uclés led the team went to the Apertura final, losing against Motagua on penalties (5–3). However, the great work of Marathón was applauded and recognized by several journalists, hobbyists and technicians in the country for their offensive and attractive football. In the Clausura season, Marathón finished third in the regular season with 29 points, and faced Platense in the semifinals. In the first leg, Marathón won 2–1 in San Pedro Sula, with a brace from Enrique Reneau, while Platense pulled one back with a goal from Clifford Laing. In the second leg, Marathón drew 0–0 at Puerto Cortés and qualified for the final. Marathón faced Olimpia in the final, who defeated Victoria 3–2 on aggregate in the semifinals. In the first leg played at the Estadio Olímpico Metropolitano, Marathón defeated Olimpia 4–1 with a penalty from Nigel Zúniga, and goals from Enrique Reneau and Óscar Vargas. In the second leg at Estadio Tiburcio Carías Andino, Olimpia won 1–0, but it wasn't enough as Marathón won 4–2 on aggregate and secured a third league title.
Fourth title (2003)
Just after 13 months, Marathón would again win another title. In the Clausura tournament, the Esmeraldas were directed by the Brazilian Flavio Ortega. Ortega replaced the Argentine Miguel Angel Lemme, who left in the middle of the season. Flavio Ortega lifted the team to finally reach second place in the regular season (only surpassed by Olimpia). In the semi-finals, Marathón faced Real España. In the first leg both teams tied 1–1; Henry Jimenez scored first for Real España, but Pompilio Cacho drew level. Three days later in the return game, played at the Estadio Olímpico Metropolitano, both sides drew 1–1 once again. Marathón entered the final, having finished higher in the regular season standings. Marathón faced Motagua in the final, with The Motagüenses having eliminated Olimpia in the semifinals. The first leg of the final was played at the Estadio Tiburcio Carías Andino, and Marathón surprised to win 1–0 with a goal from Emil Martínez, who was later sent off. In the return leg, Marathón had a total number of 35,000 fans at the Olímpico Metropolitano, the second highest attendance record in the history of Liga Nacional. Motagua struck first with a goal from Luis Oseguera in the 39th minute, however Pompilio Cacho scored the equalizer at the end of the first half. In the second half, Marathón were up 2 by goals, both scored by Denilson Costa. With this, Marathón were champions for a fourth time.
Fifth title (2004)
The team won its fifth title in 2004. Former player Nicolás Suazo led Marathón against Olimpia. After winning the first game in San Pedro Sula, Marathón won the tie in extra-time thanks to two goals from Edgardo Simovic.
Sixth title (2007)
On 22 December 2007, Marathón won its sixth league title. Under the guidance of Manuel Keosseián, the club beat Motagua in San Pedro Sula by 2–0 score after a 0–0 draw on the first leg in Tegucigalpa. Mitchel Brown and Erick Scott scored the winning goals.
Seventh title (2008)
On 13 December 2008, Marathón won its seventh title in its history and the fifth one of the new century. With Keosseián again as the coach, the club beat Real España at the Estadio Olímpico Metropolitano by a 1–0 scoreline in the first leg. In the second leg, both teams finished in a 1–1 draw.
Eighth title (2009)
In the 2009–10 season, Marathón faced Olimpia in the Apertura final. Having lost 1–0 in the first leg in Tegucigalpa, Los Panzas Verdes won 2–0 in the second leg with goals from Guillermo Ramírez and Jerry Palacios.
Ninth title (2018)
On 19 May 2018, Marathón was crowded a ninth time. Marathón faced Motagua and having finished 1–1 over two legs, Marathón came out victorious 5–4 on penalties. Under the guidance of the coach Hector Vargas, the club maintained their composure during the entire season.
