Necaxa is trying to emulate the success of Welcome to Wrexham, with celebrities buying a club and giving us a glimpse behind the scenes. But where Wrexham was full of tension and emotion, Necaxa feels primarily calm and contemplative.
Eva Longoria brings a personal touch to the series. Her connection to Mexican culture and her involvement with the club and the city of Aguascalientes make it a joy to watch. The focus on fans and the community gives the series warmth and depth.
Yet, Necaxa can't match the excitement of Wrexham. The matches and challenges feel less urgent, limiting the drama. The result is engaging and inspiring, but lacks the intensity required of a truly compelling sports documentary.
