[edit]

On 3 June 2012, C.D. Real Sociedad obtained the promotion to the Liga Nacional as winner of the 2011–12 Liga de Ascenso.[3] Platense F.C. which had been relegated last season, bought C.D. Necaxa's franchise and will play in first division.

[edit]

The fixtures for the Apertura tournament were announced on 4 July; with the results Real C.D. España 1–0 C.D. Real Sociedad and Atlético Choloma 4–2 C.D.S. Vida, the tournament opened fire on 28 July.[4][5] On rounds 2 and 3, Vida included midfielder Luis Jaramillo on their lineups despite being ineligible to play; on 12 September, the Northern Disciplinary Commission made the decision to award both matches to Real España and Victoria 3–0.[6]

On 28 October, Club Deportivo Olimpia became the first team to secure a spot for the postseason, after defeating Platense F.C. 0–1 at Estadio Excélsior in Puerto Cortés.[7] C.D. Victoria also qualified along Olimpia directly to the semifinals finishing second. On the other hand, C.D. Motagua–Real España and C.D. Marathón–Atlético Choloma had to play a playoff round.

The semifinal encounters were settled on 21 November, as Motagua and Atlético Choloma defeated Real España and Marathón respectively. Motagua crushed Real España with a 7–3 on aggregate.[8] Meanwhile, Atlético Choloma dispatched Marathón after a 2–2 aggregated score but with more away goals scored.[9]

Once in the semifinals, Olimpia got rid of Atlético Choloma with a 2–1 aggregate, meanwhile Victoria and Motagua finished with a 3–3 global score, however, Victoria advanced thanks to a better regular season finish over Motagua. With their success in the semifinals, Olimpia and Victoria re-encountered each other in a final for the third time in history,[10] having won one each in the previous two. The first match in La Ceiba ended with a scoreless tie; but in the second leg, Olimpia had no mercy over Victoria and won its third consecutive title with an overwhelming 4–0.[11]
