Deportivo A Coruña history

Federico Fernández-Amor Calvet started the club in 1906, calling it Club Deportivo de la Sala Calvet. Deportivo won La Liga once, in 1999-2000, and finished second five times. They also took two Spanish Cups, in 1994-95 and 2001-02, three Spanish Super Cups and the old Concurso España in 1912.

From 1992 to 2010 the Blue and Whites were a fixture near the top of La Liga, landing in the top half in 16 of 19 seasons. That run brought five straight Champions League campaigns between 2000-01 and 2004-05, with two quarterfinals and a semifinal in 2003-04. The home kit pairs blue-and-white stripes with blue shorts and socks, and Celta Vigo is the Galician derby rival.
