Pachuca celebrates CCL title but decisions loom for directors ahead of Club World Cup

The Tuzos are once again continental champions, but now must decide whether to hold onto stars like Hirving Lozano and Erick Gutierrez.

Wednesday night into early Thursday morning is a time for joy for Pachuca.

The club, Mexico's oldest, is once again the continental champion after topping Tigres 1-0 in Wednesday's second leg for a 2-1 aggregate victory. The city of fewer than 300,000 and fans in the whole state of Hidalgo is in love with the sport, in love with the team and thrilled to see it on top once again.

The celebrations are deserved for the players, like Hirving Lozano who was superb throughout the whole tournament, willing Tuzos to victory.
