Coritiba Foot Ball Club, based in Curitiba, Paraná, is a historic Brazilian club currently competing in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. Founded in 1909 by German immigrants, the club plays at the iconic Estádio Couto Pereira, renowned for its passionate atmosphere. Coritiba's traditional colors are green and white. The club's name is a Portuguese adaptation of "Coritiba," an old spelling of Curitiba. "Coxa Branca" (White Thigh), as they are affectionately known, boasts a rich history, with their peak era arriving in the 1980s when they won the Brazilian Série A title in 1985, a team led by stars like forward Rafael and defender Duílio. That championship remains the club's crowning achievement. The modern era has been marked by volatility, with frequent promotions and relegations between the top two divisions. The current campaign in Série B sees Coritiba, with a mix of experienced players and youth prospects, aiming for an immediate return to the top flight. The fan base is one of the most loyal and vocal in southern Brazil. Coritiba is a club of great tradition, forever proud of its 1985 national title.
