history
The Club de Deportes Santiago Morning was founded in 1903 in Santiago de Chile. The founding members were mainly students from the University of Santiago, who initially called their club Santiago FC. The club kept this name until 1936, when the club name CD Santiago Morning, which is still valid today, was adopted. The renaming was justified by a merger of Santiago FC with another capital club called Morning Star.
Still under the old name Santiago FC, today's Santiago Morning was a founding member of the Chilean Primera División in 1933. In general, the club, which names Deportes Magallanes as their main rival , was one of the most successful teams of the first hour of the Chilean football club. However, Santiago Morning could only win the championship of Chile once. In the 1942 season they finished first with one point ahead of Magallanes. CD Santiago Morning was Chilean runner-up two more times, in 1939 and 1941, respectively, the second place in the table was achieved.
But the successful period at the beginning of professional football in Chile did not last long for Santiago Morning. After a few years in midfield following winning the title in 1942, the first relegation to Primera B had to be accepted in the early 1950s. Since then, Santiago Morning has left the upper reaches of the Primera División and has not been able to record any significant successes. The only thing worth mentioning is the entry into the final of the Copa Chile, the Chilean cup competition in football, in the 2000 season, but they lost 2-1 to CF Universidad de Chile in extra time. At league level, Santiago Morning has been in the Primera División for a long time in recent years, where the club recently found itself in the lower part of the table. In the 2011 season, however, you had to accept relegation to Primera B after only the penultimate place was occupied in the overall table.
