Ypiranga Futebol Clube

The origins of Ypiranga Futebol Clube go back to the rivalry with Ítalo-Brasileiro, then the only club in the city of Erechim. In 1924, a match between Ítalo-Brasileiro and Douradense, team from Linha Dourado, was being played in the field where the Júlio de Castilhos square is located today, in the center of Erechim. A group of people who had recently arrived in town showed support for Douradense – a fact that caused a general confusion at the end of the match. The next day, in the ballroom of Hotel Central on Avenida Maurício Cardoso, the group of soccer enthusiasts decided to create a new club. Their patriotic motivation gave the new association the colors green and yellow, as well as a name that referred to Brazil's independence, and on 18 August 1924, Ypiranga Futebol Clube was born. On 20 September 1924, the club played its first game, a 1–0 victory over Italo-Brasileiro. The club became professional in 1965, and two years later won their first title, the Campeonato Gaucho A2 (Second Division). In 1970 the Colosso da Lagoa opened with a match between Gremio and Pelé's Santos, where he scored his 1040th goal. In 2010, the club made its first Copa do Brasil appearance, losing to Avaí 3–0. In 2016, the club had their best Copa do Brasil campaign, eliminating Atletico Goianense and Aparecidense before losing 3-1 on aggregate to Fluminense. In 2019, the club won their fifth Campeonato Gaucho A2 title, and in the Serie C, the club topped their group in the first stage,…
