Club Atlético Banfield is a traditional Argentine football institution based in the Buenos Aires suburb of Banfield, competing in the Primera División. The club's home is the Estadio Florencio Sola. Founded in 1896 by British railway workers, it is one of the oldest clubs in Argentina, with its green and white colors a symbol of the community. Banfield has historically been a solid top-division side, with its greatest achievement coming in the 2009 Apertura tournament when, under coach Julio César Falcioni, they won their first and only Primera División title in dramatic fashion. That team, known for its extraordinary defensive solidity, conceded only 11 goals in 19 matches. In the modern era, Banfield oscillates between mid-table security and occasional relegation battles, but consistently produces talented players for the Argentine football landscape. The club has a strong, family-oriented fan base known as *El Taladro* (The Drill). Banfield is a club of great tradition and a historic champion.
