Club Atlético Cerro , or Cerro for short (nicknames: Villeros , Albiceleste , Cerrense ) is a football club from the Villa del Cerro district in the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo .
General
Like the Rampla Juniors, Cerro comes from the Villa del Cerro district . The clash between the two arch-rivals is the second most important derby in Uruguayan football after the derby between the two major Uruguayan clubs, Nacional and Peñarol . The club, which is located on 3580 Calle Grecia , plays its home games in the 25,000-seat Estadio Luis Tróccoli out. The current president of the association (as of December 21, 2011) is Alfredo Boris Jaureguiberry , who replaced Carlos Cairo in this position. The club's second team plays in the Tercera División under coach Richard Martínez (as of March 6, 2011). Cerro also has a women's football department, whose team will play "Diego Rodríguez" in the Campeonato Uruguayo (as of March 6, 2011).
history
Foundation phase
The association was founded on December 1, 1922. On that day, 70 people gathered in the Café de Paníza in Montevideo on the corner of Grecia / China . This was preceded by the idea, which arose at the beginning of the 1920s, to found a team representing the barrio , which also bore the name of the district. The Rampla Juniors club, also based in Cerro, was already in existence at that time. However , the association founded in Ciudad Vieja was not one that originally came from the barrio. A bigger problem in the founding phase was the agreement on the colors of the jerseys. Since the club was to emerge from the merger of several teams, each wanted to enforce its previous colors as those of the new club. As a result, it was agreed to play an internal championship among the Cerros teams, the winners of which should subsequently determine the colors of the new club to be founded. The teams Reformers , Aldosiver , Sabiá , Combate , Punta Yeguas , Santa Rosa , Waterloo , Oriental , Relámpago , Treinta y Tres and 1º de Mayo were involved . Clúb Oriental , who competed in white jerseys with light blue vertical stripes, black shorts and gray socks and emerged as the winner of the tournament, was the inspiration for the new club's identical clothing. An attempt by Jesus Mandilaharazu to also adopt the name of the tournament winner , however, did not find a majority. With 50 of the 70 votes, the choice fell on the name Clúb Atletico Cerro, which is still valid today .
20th century
Cerro rose to the highest Uruguayan league for the first time in 1926 and finished there in 13th place in the first season in 1927. After they even finished third in 1928, the team known as Albiceleste had to accept relegation the following year. The return to the upper house only succeeded with the rise of the year 1946. In the 1950s and 1960s the most successful period of the club began, when the third place in the championship was achieved several times. In 1960, the Cerros team ended the season as runner-up with the greatest success in the club's history. In the playoff with champions Club Atlético Peñarol, the Albiceleste lost 2-1.
The most successful team in Cerro's history was made up of the following players: The core was formed by Julio Dalmao , Ruben Soria , Miguel de Britos , Juan O. Pintos and Ángel Rodríguez , who each played 17 games, and Waldemar Gonzales and 17 games Ruben Coccinello as well as Pedro Gonzalez Acuña and Carretti who came to 15 and 14 season appearances . In addition, Wilfredo Brum (4), Leonel Conde (3), Bianchi (3) Sequeira (3), Oscar Vilariño (2), Baldi (1), Luis Calsagna (1) and Munir Kalik (1) contributed to this success.
In 1963, Cerro completed the largest tour in the club's history to date, which led through Europe, the Soviet Union and Africa over a period of two months from May to July 1963. In return, they strengthened themselves with Héctor Silva, who was only on loan for this trip . Beginning in the Romanian capital Bucharest with a duel against FC Progresul Bucharest , one met Știința Cluj , CSMS Iași , Farul Constanța , Chornomorez Odessa , the South African national football team and the selection of Rhodesia in the course of the tour . As a result of the ten matches played, five wins, two draws and three defeats were recorded. In 1967, 1973 and 1975 Cerro carried out the three other tours in the club's history.
In 1967, Cerro took part as New York Skyliners , based in Yankee Stadium , in the championship of the then official soccer association of the USA , the United Soccer Association and finished fifth in the Eastern Division and was penultimate.
In 1973 Venezuela was the goal with games against Portuguesa FC , Valencia FC and Estudiantes de Mérida , two years later they played seven games in Costa Rica, Honduras and again in Venezuela.
In 1985, when they were again third in the Primera División , and in 1986, the club's track record was the win at Torneo Ciudad de Montevideo .
In 1995 the club took part in the Copa Libertadores , the South American counterpart to the European Champions League, after defeating Defensor Sporting in the play-off games of the league . There they were eliminated in the first group stage after only a win against the Argentine club Independiente , as well as a draw against the other Uruguayan representative Peñarol could be achieved.

21st century
After playing in the top Uruguayan league from at least 2002, Cerro was relegated from the Primera División in 2006. The 2006/07 season spent the club in the Segunda División , Uruguay's second-highest division. There they won the Torneo Apertura, took third place in the overall annual ranking and finally prevailed in the play-off games against Juventud , the winner of the 2007 Torneo Clausura of the Segunda División. As a result, Cerro returned to the first division after a year of abstinence, in which one has been represented continuously since then. In the following years, the Torneo Clausura in particular was successful, in which they took third place in the table in the final accounts as well as in the overall table for the 2008/09 season. This qualified for participation in the Copa Artigas 2009 , which Cerro won and thus qualified for the Copa Libertadores in 2010. In the following season, they were even runner-up in the national league at Torneo Clausura 2010.

Ricardo "Tato" Ortíz was the coach of the 2010/11 season from February 16, 2011 when he replaced Alejandro Apud . He was assisted by assistant coach Andrés Martínez and goalkeeping coach Coco Aires . Cerro also played in the top Uruguayan league, the Primera División, in the 2011/12 season. On December 21, 2011, coach Ricardo "Tato" Ortiz and the club announced the amicable separation. Hugo Parga was announced as the new coach . He was supported by the coaching team consisting of Alcides Machado, Fernando González and goalkeeping coach Gonzalo Noguera . In 2012, however, Ricardo Ortíz returned to the Cerros coaching chair.
The 2012/13 season ended Cerro as 10th in the final table, tied with Danubio. In the 2013/14 season, Danilo Baltierra initially looked after the team as a coach, who had already taken over the position in the Clausura 2013. However, after poor results, he was released from his duties in November 2013. Later in the season, the Argentine Pablo Rodríguez took over the coaching role. Both in the Apertura and in the Clausura they finished tenth again. With this, Cerro also finished 10th in the overall annual table for the 2013/14 season . In addition, Héctor Acuña was the top scorer of the first division season.
After a bad start to the 2014/15 season, coach Pablo Rodríguez was dismissed after four defeats in the first four match days on September 8, 2014 and replaced by Juan Tejera . For his part, Tejera resigned and resigned on November 24, 2014. One day later, the reserve team coach Santiago Kalemkerian took over the training management. At the end of December 2014, the former coach of the Honduran national team, Miguel Falero, became the new coach of the Montevideans.
On February 14, 2015, during the home game between Cerros and Peñarol at the Estadio Luis Tróccoli, there were clashes between parts of the local supporters and the police, which led to the game being abandoned in the 83rd minute of the game. Less than two weeks later, the disciplinary commission of the Asociación Uruguaya de Fútbol sanctioned this with a point deduction for Cerro and obliged the club to play three home games without spectators.
At the end of the 2014/15 season, Cerro barely prevented relegation as 14th of the annual total table and 13th of the relegation rating. The following season was much more successful. They came third in the overall table for the year.
