History
Racing Club, founded in 1903 in Avellaneda, is Argentine football's Academia: multiple national champions, Libertadores winners and 1967 Intercontinental Cup champions. Sky-blue and white colours and Avellaneda identity link the club to the Clásico de Avellaneda with Independiente. Estadio Presidente Perón (El Cilindro) hosts supporters; idols and historic cycles shaped generations. Youth work and institutional tradition keep Racing on the South American map. Academic culture and the local rivalry continue to define the club's path in contemporary Argentine football.
