history

Beginnings

The association was founded on March 1st, 1932 by Bulgarian immigrants. In 1941 the association joined the Asociación Uruguaya de Fútbol (AUF). In that year they reached the vice championship of the Torneo Preparación Extra . The following year they won this championship unbeaten. In 1943 he won the Torneo Preparación Intermedia and became - again undefeated - Uruguayan Intermedia champion . Danubio also decided the Torneo Honor Intermedia in his favor.

Affiliation to professional football and first championship

Since 1944 part of the Segunda División , the second highest division in Uruguay, the club was runner-up in the Torneo Preparación B in 1946 . In addition, you could see the championship of the Torneo Honor B winning. The following year they reached the championship in Torneo Preparación B and Torneo Honor B , became Uruguayan second division champions and rose to the Primera División . There the success curve of Danubio reached its highest point to date, when they finished second in the Uruguayan championship in 1954. Four years later, in 1958, they finished second in the Torneo Competencia . A relegation followed the renewed championship in the Segunda División in 1960. After you had to leave the top division of Uruguay again, you could combine the renewed return to the Primera División in 1970 with the championship of the Segunda División, which has now been won for the third time. Since then, the club has been in the highest Uruguayan league. The runner-up in 1983 was followed by the greatest success in the club's history to date, when the Danubios team decided the Uruguayan championship in their favor for the first time after winning the Torneo Competencia . At the turn of the millennium, an extremely successful phase began for the Montevideans. In 2001 they booked the Apertura championship for the first time and in the following year they followed suit by winning the second half of the season.

Championship 2004

In 2004 they became Uruguayan champions for the second time. In that year the trophies of the previously played Torneo Clasificatorio were also secured without conceding a single defeat, and also that of the Clausura.

The championship team of 2004 consisted of the following players:
First eleven: Luis Barbat , Luciano "Cafú" Barbosa , Jádson Viera , Guillermo Rodríguez , Bruno Silva , Omar Pouso (captain), Walter Gargano , Pablo Lima , Ignacio González , Ignacio Risso and Juan M. Salgueiro Substitutes
: Diego Rariz , Jorge Anchén , Jorge Artigas , Diego Perrone and Juan M. Ortiz
Other substitutes: Sandro Franco , Damián Malrechauffe , Damián Álvarez , Rubén Da Silva and Gonzalo Gutiérrez Coach
team: Gerardo Pelusso (coach); Ruben Salnitro ( Preparador fisico ); Assistant trainers: Carlos Vázquez and Mario Viera

Jadson Viera was the only player to play all 39 games.

Championship 2006/07

After the master coach Pelusso and his coaching team left Montevideo at the end of 2005, Danubio signed Gustavo Matosas as the new coach, initially assisted by José Óscar Herrera ( preparador físico ), who later migrated to the national team . The third place achieved in the subsequent Torneo Clausura also led to third place in the season table, but only due to the worse goal difference. The 2006/07 season was the highlight so far, when the Apertura title was followed by the Clausura title under the aegis of Matosas, ultimately securing the number three national championship title. This was to be Danubio's last triumph for the time being.

The winning team of the Torneo Apertura 2006 consisted of:
Esteban Conde , Damián Malrechauffe, Jadson Viera, Sergio Rodríguez , Leonardo Abelenda , Walter Gargano, Carlos Grossmüller , Jorge García , Ignacio González, Edinson Cavani , Juan Manuel Salgueiro , Pablo Lima, Raúl Ferro , Hámilton Ricard , Pablo Iglesias , Ribair Rodríguez , Damián Santín , Gary Kagelmacher , Jorge Anchén , Marcos Tora , Cristiano Gomes , Daley Mena , Diego Martiñones and Miguel Ximénez .
The coaching team has now completed: Esteban Gesto as preparador físico and the assistant coaches Jorge Giordano and Luis Matosas . Absolute regular players in the first half of the season were goalkeeper Conde as well as Viera, Grosmüller, Cavani and Salgueiro, none of whom missed a game. As the record goal scorer of the Apertura, "Nacho" González was responsible with ten goals.

The players Anchén, Luciano Barbosa , Ximénez, Cavani and Salgueiro left the club for the summer break , but goalkeeper Martín Góngora and the two Colombian strikers Jeffrey Díaz and Eudalio Arriaga were signed in return . In the second half of the season, when Hamilton Ricard emerged as the club's most successful goalscorer (eight goals), Conde and Viera again had the most playing time of all players. Goalkeeper Conde should also be the only player to appear in all of the season's encounters. Ignacio González scored the maximum with 13 goals over the entire season.

The following players belonged to the squad :
Esteban Conde , Jadson Viera, Sergio Rodríguez, Marcelo González , Pablo Lima, Walter Gargano, Carlos Grossmüller, Jorge García, Ignacio González, Hamilton Ricard, Eudalio Arriaga , Damián Malrechauffe, Raúl Ferro , Jeffrey Díaz, Marcos Tora , Diego Martiñones , Daley Mena , Marcel Román , Martín Góngora, Damián Santín , Alvaro Noble , Willians Peralta , Enzo Scorza , Nicolás Gentilio , Guillermo Reyes , Edinson Cavani, Gary Kagelmacher, Juan M. Salgueiro, Leonardo Abelenda , Ribair Rodríguez , Pablo Iglesias, Jorge Anchén and Miguel Ximénez

Overall, apart from the two clearly dominant Nacional and Peñarol , the club is one of the most successful teams since professional football was introduced in Uruguay. In the all-time table of the Primera División they finished fifth after the 2011/12 season. In 2012/13, the club was in a difficult sporting situation when they only finished last in the table after the end of the Torneo Apertura 2012. In the Clausura 2013, however, they fought for a fifth place, so that they classified in the year-end table on position 11.

Championship 2013/14

The positive development continued in the following season and won the Apertura 2013 with one point ahead of River Plate . In the Clausura 2014 you finished fifth. Danubio finished 4th in the overall table for the 2013/14 season . As an Apertura winner, they also qualified for the semi-final game for the Uruguayan championship against the Clausura winner Montevideo Wanderers FC , who would have been champions if Danubio had been defeated without a final to be played.

In the semifinal against Danubio played on May 25, 2014, the Wanderers lost 3-0. This ultimately resulted in two final games that were decisive for the 2013/14 championship. After the first final at the Estadio Luis Franzini ended 0-0 on June 3, 2014 , Danubio won the second final game, accompanied by four sent-offs, on June 8, 2014 at Gran Parque Central on penalties, after it was 2-2 after extra time had confessed. Thus Danubio became Uruguayan champion for the fourth time. The hero of the game was goalkeeper Salvador Ichazo , who saved four penalties in the penalty shoot-out.

International competitions

So far, Danubio has qualified six times for the Copa Libertadores and took part in this international club competition. The premiere in 1978 under coach Pedro Cubilla , which failed in the group stage, was followed by a second appearance in 1984 . On this occasion, too, Óscar Tabárez's players did not make it to the next round. Danubio's most successful international appearance to date was at the Copa Libertadores in 1989 . In this third participation you advanced to the semi-finals. Atlético Nacional , who later won the Copa, turned out to be too strong an opponent there. At that time, Ildo E. Maneiro was the coach of the Montevideans. In 2005 (out in the group phase), trained by Gerardo Pelusso , in 2007 (failed in the qualifying round) under Gustavo Matosas and in 2008 (out in the group phase) with Gustavo Dalto in the coaching bench, the 1989 success was not possible.
