Managua Fútbol Club is a professional football club based in Managua, Nicaragua which currently plays in the Nicaraguan Premier Division.
History
The team was promoted to the Primera División for the first time in their history in 2009–10 after beating Deportivo América in a two-legged Segunda División championship final.
They made an immediate impact on the top flight, qualifying for the semi-finals in their first season (Apertura 2010). Since then, they have been a regular playoff participant and even reached the finals of the 2017 Apertura, losing on away goals to Walter Ferretti.
In 2018, the club had its most successful period in its history under the guidance of Nicaraguan Emilio Aburto. The club were able to win their first championship (the Apertura 2018) in club history. Managua won 1–0 over two legged series against powerful club Real Esteli F.C.; Lucas dos Santos was the lone goal-scorer for Managua and he was the league-leading goalscorer that season.
