history
In 1921 the three clubs Marte Atlético , the Vencedor founded in 1907 and General Aquino , merged to form the Club Sportivo Luqueño .
Marte Atlético and Vencedor were founding members of the Liga Centenario as early as 1911 , an alternative league held in Paraguay until 1917. Marte soon joined the Liga Paraguaya de Fútbol , the predecessor of the current state association Asociación Paraguaya de Fútbol , and was second division champion there in 1915, but renounced the promotion of permanent possession of the trophy, the Copa Intendencia Municipal , get. This was achieved by winning again, this time unbeaten, the second division championship in the following year. Until he was relegated as bottom of the table in 1919, Marte then played in the first division for three years. Last season, the club conceded, among other things, a 0:16 defeat at River Plate Asunción .
Vencedor probably played all seasons of the Liga Centenario, which was named Asociación Paraguaya de Fútbol from 1916 (not to be confused with the current national football association of Paraguay ), and in 1917, after its dissolution, took part in the División Transitoria , both of which had first access to the Liga Paraguaya de Fútbol received. After the first season in the second division Vencedor took part in a promotion match against the last of the first division Club Sol de América , but lost this before the start of the 1919 season with 2: 5.
Sportivo Luqueño was champion of the second division, the División Intermedia , in 1924 and rose to the Primera División , Paraguay's highest league. Sportivo presumably rose from the Primera División in 1931 or 1932 and was therefore not one of the founding members of the professional league after the Chaco War in 1935, but only joined the following year. Sportivo won the championship in 1951 and 1953.
The club's best-known player is the Luque-born goalkeeper José Luis Chilavert , who played as a youth from 1980 to 1982 and then on the Sportivo team until 1984.
