Club América is a Mexican football giant based in Mexico City, competing in Liga MX, the top tier of the country's football pyramid. The team, officially known as Club de Fútbol América S.A. de C.V., plays its home matches at the iconic Estadio Azteca, the largest stadium in Latin America. Founded in 1916, the club's colors are bright yellow and blue, and it is owned by media conglomerate Televisa. The name "América" was chosen to represent the New World. América's history is one of dominance and rivalry, forming one half of the legendary "Clásico Nacional" against Chivas de Guadalajara. The club's peak eras are numerous, but the 1980s under coach Miguel Ángel López were particularly glorious, winning multiple league titles and the Copa Interamericana. In the modern era, América remains a powerhouse, consistently challenging for titles under the ownership of Televisa. Recent years have seen them add more Liga MX championships to their record, most recently in the 2023 Clausura, and they are perennial contenders in the CONCACAF Champions League. The squad is typically star-studded, featuring top Mexican internationals and high-profile South American imports. The fan base, known as "Las Águilas" (The Eagles), is massive and spread across the entire nation, though also famously demanding. Club América is synonymous with success, resources, and immense pressure, embodying the glamour and intensity of Mexican football.
