History
editOrigins
editThe origins of the club can be traced to the end of the 19th century, when a group ofBuenos Aires Great Southern Railwayemployees asked for permission to play football in a field belonging to the company. As the request was approved, they started to play their first matches there, mostly against teams formed by British immigrants.[11]
In 1898, they founded a club, "Argentinos Excelsior Club", which lasted three years until in 1901, three new clubs were established "Sud América Fútbol Club de Barracas al Sur", "American Club" and "Argentinos Unidos", with Barracas al Sur the most notable of them. Nevertheless, the club was soon disbanded, establishing "Colorados Unidos" on 16 March 1902. On 25 March 1903, both clubs met at Mercado de Hacienda with the purpose of merging again.[11]
The club took its name from a Frenchauto racingmagazine owned by Germán Vidaillac (a founding partner of French ancestry). The suggestion was well received and the name "Racing Club" was immediately approved.[12]Racing was the first football team integrally formed bycriollo people.
The first jersey worn by the emerging club was white, until 25 July 1904, when it was decided a yellow and black vertical striped jersey would be used. Nevertheless, the recently adopted uniform only lasted a week due to its similarity to Uruguayan clubCURCC,being replaced by a design proposed by president Luis Carbone. The jersey had four squares, two light blue and two pink. This light blue and pink design would be worn until 1908, once again replaced by a design with three horizontal bars (two blue and one white). Finally, Racing adopted the light blue and white colors in 1910, in commemoration of theMay Revolution's 100th anniversary that same year.[11]

That year was the debut ofUbaldo Fillol,who some regard as the best Argentine goalkeeper ever. Fillol set a record of 6 penalty shots stopped in the same season. From 1974 and 1978 Racing made poor campaigns and was near relegation in1976when the team finished next to last (San Telmowas finally relegated).[27]
In1983,Racing was relegated to thePrimera Bby finishing last in the aggregate table, which was determined by a points average of the previous two seasons. However, the relegation system was changed, and if it had not been changed, Racing probably wouldn't have been relegated. The old system had the two last-placed teams go down, and Racing finished 17th out of 19 that year. The first year in the second division, Racing finished second behindDeportivo Españoland so had to play a promotion playoff, where Racing eliminatedDeportivo MorónandLanúsbut lost toGimnasia y Esgrima (LP)in the finals (1–3 and 2–4).[28]

Bankruptcy and resurrection
editIn July 1998, club presidentDaniel Lalíndeclaredbankruptcy,leaving many supporters outraged.

However, with the massive support of the fans, they convinced the club to implement theTrust law,saving it from liquidation. In December 2000, the club was taken over byBlanquiceleste SAand was managed by the company until 2008.[34][35]

In the second leg, Racing won 1–0 at home, and with a 2–1 aggregate score, was able to maintain its permanence in the top tier.[36]
In 2012, Racing reached the2012 Copa Argentina Final,where the squad lost toBoca Juniors2–1.[37]
In June 2014,Diego Coccawas hired as head coach.[38]Two days after Cocca signed his contract, former player and fan favoriteDiego MilitoleftInter Milanand returned to the club to play the2014 Torneo de Transición.[39][40]In December 2014, Racing won its17th Primera División titlein the last fixture of the tournament. If Racing drew but River Plate won their match against Quilmes, then the title would've gone to River. However, the team defeatedGodoy Cruz1–0 to secure the 1st place and be crowned champions for the first time in 13 years.[41][42]
They won the league in2018–19.[19]Lisandro Lópezwas the top scorer of the tournament with 17 goals, and at the age of 36 he was the oldest player to be league top scorer.[43][44][45]In December 2019, Racing became champion of theTrofeo de Campeones de la Superliga Argentinaby beating the defending champion of theCopa de la Superliga,Tigre,2–0, with both goals fromMatías Rojas.[46]
