Wikipedia - F.C. Alverca
Futebol Clube de Alverca is a Portuguese football club based in Alverca do Ribatejo, Vila Franca de Xira. It currently plays in the Portuguese 3rd Division.
History
F.C. Alverca was founded on 1 September 1939.
After many decades in the lower levels of Portuguese football, Alverca was promoted to the top level in 1998, and played there in four of the next five editions, also coming back for 2003–04, which also ended in relegation; during most of this time, the club acted as feeder club to S.L. Benfica. Alverca played one more year in level two, before folding for financial reasons, in 2005.
In 2006, Alverca re-formed, beginning at regional level in the Lisbon Football Association's District Leagues, and being promoted in 2007–08 to the first division of that category.
In 2017–18, Alverca won promotion back to the national level, as district champions. On 17 October 2019, Alverca won 2–0 in the third round of the Taça de Portugal against Big Three club Sporting CP, becoming only the second third-tier club in history to knock that team out the cup; the other was F.C. Tirsense in 1948. Fellow Primeira Liga club Rio Ave F.C. beat Alverca by a single goal in the next round. Alex Apolinário, scorer of the first goal in the win over Sporting, died in January 2021 days after collapsing in a match for Alverca.
Alverca har vunnit Campeonato Nacional de Seniores, den tredje nivån i det portugisiska fotbollssystemet, vid tre tillfällen, 1962-1963, 2003-2004 och 2013-2014. Klubben har också nått finalen i Taça de Portugal, den portugisiska cupen, vid ett tillfälle, 1990, men förlorade mot CS Marítimo.
Några av de mest kända spelarna som har spelat för Alverca är Nuno Gomes, Ricardo Pereira och Maniche. Klubben har också fostrat ett antal unga talanger, inklusive Fábio Coentrão, João Moutinho och Yannick Djaló.
Alverca har ett starkt supportersamhälle och är känd för sin passionerade hemmafans. Klubben har också ett antal officiella supporterklubbar som är utspridda över Portugal.
