History
Club Atlético San Lorenzo de Almagro, founded in 1908 in Buenos Aires, is one of Argentina's big five: Libertadores champions, national titles and Cuervo tradition in Boedo and later at the Nuevo Gasómetro. Blue-and-red colours and the Maltese cross link the club to porteño identity. Rivalries with Boca, River, Racing and Independiente shape daily life; idols such as Mascherano marked generations. Youth work and popular culture keep San Lorenzo on the South American map. Boedo identity and supporter ties continue to define the club's path in contemporary Argentine football.
