Pontevedra CF

Pontevedra Club de Fútbol was founded in 1941, following the merge of the two top teams in the city at the time: Eiriña CF and Alfonso XIII CF.

Pontevedra returned to the Segunda División after 20 years on 27 June 2004, after winning their Segunda División B group and defeating Lorca Deportiva CF on the final day of the playoffs. The team struggled in their one year back in national professional football, finishing dead last but winning 4–1 at home in their final fixture against fellow relegated team UD Salamanca. On 23 January 2007 Pontevedra was transformed into a Sociedad Anónima…
