Despite of being eliminated early last season, the club's board of directors confirmed the continuity of coach Diego Vásquez for the start of the 2014–15 season.[1] On 24 April 2014, Jorge Claros, Eduardo Sosa, Víctor Ortiz and Luis Castro were separated from the club.[2] On 19 May 2014, Pedro Atala announced his resignation after 9 years as the club's president.[3] Julio Gutiérrez took charge on July. On 8 November, Júnior Izaguirre reached 300 games playing for the club, a record at the time; he also scored the winning goal that night in the 2–1 home win over C.D. Victoria. On 7 December, the club qualified for their first final after six tournaments being absent. On 20 December, with a 2–1 aggregate over C.D. Real Sociedad, Motagua conquered its 13th national title by winning the 2014–15 Apertura season.[4]
