The manager is unassuming and rarely mentioned by the press but has guided his club to the verge of the Liguilla final
David Patino became Pumas manager almost by default. After a pair of interim stints, during which the former forward ultimately was passed over, the third time was the charm. The club's board rewarded Patino for a successful interim stint and turned the club over to the unassuming coach.
It hasn't resulted in any trophies yet, but heading into the second leg of Pumas' semifinal against America it's obvious that the club stumbled on someone who has been able to get the most out of what he has to work with.
