Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid Football Club (Club Ateltico de Madrid) is a Spanish football club from Madrid. The club was founded on April 26th 1903 and is playing in the Spanish Premier League "La Liga - Spanish Primera Division". The club has won the Spanish League championship 10 times in the past, and also won the Copa Del Rey for the same amount of times. The club has also won the UEFA Winners cup (1974), Uefa Europa League (2010, 2012) and the Intercontinental Cup (1974). It has lost the UEFA Champions League 3 times (1974, 2014, 2016).

The club's home stadium is the Vicente Calderon Stadium located in Madrid, Spain, which has around 54,960 seats. After the 2016/17 season, the stadium will be demolished, and the team will start playing at the Estadio La Peineta, also known as the Estadio Olimipico de Madrid, which has a capacity of 20,000 and will be able to host 73,729 in the near future.
During the club's history it has received many nicknames such as Los Colchoneros (The mattress makers) after the team's uniform who's made of old mattresses. During the 70's the team has also received the nickname Los Indios (The Indians) due to the fact that the team signed many South American players after the limitation concerning foreign players were lifted. Some suggest a different explanation for the nickname and claim it is a natural contradiction to their opponent team "The Whites" since Native Americans were at war with the white population occupying South America.

The club had many different crests along the years but the current one has been around since 1947 and has not been changed dramatically since. The left top side of the crest has the symbol of Madrid while the rest is the club's colors.
