Nacional Football Team

I don't know a lot about Uruguayan football but I know that there is a lot of competition and rivalry between local teams.

I heard that Nacional just won the country's title cup and now the coach that led them to that victory has stepped down! What is that about?

Can anyone tell me a bit about these teams? Who should I follow?

Hi John,

As you said, Nacional won the league and the coach is gone (I think he might have another team waiting for him... $$$$)

If you ask a bunch of people you will find that almost 100% of the population supports Nacional or Peņarol, the other "big" team in Uruguay. Personally, I'm a Peņarol fan.

Peņarol and Nacional share more than 90% of the league titles since the early 1900's. Peņarol was founded in 1891 by engish railroad workers and Nacional in 1899 by uruguayan people (that's why they are "Nacional").

Peņarol has won 5 SouthAmerican Champions League and Nacional 3. Both are 3-time World Clubs Champions.

Actually Nacional had better results and Peņarol is a bit depressed but that happened many times during their history. In the 90's Peņarol won 6 titles, 5 of them in a row from 1993 to 1997.

For more unbiased information you can check www.fifa.com.

Regards,

Rafa

For the nonspellers: Urugauy and Monte Video is Montevideo (monte-vid-day-o), real estate agents are "Inmobiliaria", and of course Uruguay is not spelled Uraguay. 1804670505
