History
Rīga FC, founded in 2015 in Riga, is a national football reference and a marked continental presence. Known as Riga FC, it collected the 2018, 2019 and 2020 Latvian championships and Skonto Stadium. Rivalry with RFS, no derby de Riga and a blue and white identity shape fans and narrative. Skonto Stadium, local support and Skonto Stadium sustain the contemporary project. Youth work, management and competitive ambition define the current cycle against historic rivals. The sporting project balances a memory of triumphs with the demands of the modern elite.
