history

Club founder David Foxley
Champion team 1950

On June 24, 1909, a football club was founded by English students in David Foxley's house in Cerro Alegre de Valparaíso. In memory of his previous guest appearances in Argentina, it was named after the English FC Everton , according to one theory. In 1912, the club first took part in the championship of the Liga de Valparaíso .

The first significant athlete of the club, which in the course of history also played athletics, swimming, badminton, rugby, gymnastics and basketball, was the short-distance hurdler Harald Rosenqvist, who won a total of three titles at the South American Championships in 1919 and 1920.

The club joined the Asociación Central de Fútbol in 1944 and thus acquired the right to participate in the Primera División , in which the club was continuously represented from 1944 to 1972. In 1950 he was the first club outside the capital to win the championship; a success that could be repeated just two years later.

After relegation from 1972, Everton spent two seasons in the second division and won his third league title in the second year of his return to the first division in 1976. This title win entitled the club in 1977 to participate in the Copa Libertadores for the first time , in which the third place in group 4 was occupied, so that they were eliminated in the preliminary round.

After another second division season in 1982, in which the direct resurgence succeeded, Everton played again between 1983 and 1995 in the first division and won in this phase 1984 for the only time the Chilean cup competition.

Between 1996 and 2003, Everton was only represented in the second division with the exception of the 2000 season, when they played first class. The most successful epoch in the recent past was membership of the first division between 2004 and 2010, which was crowned in the Apertura 2008 with the fourth championship title in the club's history. On the way to this success, Everton prevailed against the two most successful teams in the country: in the semifinals they beat CF Universidad de Chile with an aggregate result of 4: 2 (3: 1 in the first leg and 1: 1 in the second leg) and in the final they prevailed against the Chilean record champions CSD Colo-Colo with an overall result of 3: 2 (the 2-0 defeat in the first leg was followed by a 3-0 win in front of their own audience) . Everton's most successful scorer in these encounters was the Argentine Ezequiel Miralles , who scored all the goals for his team's 3-1 victory in the semi-final first leg at Universidad and was twice successful in the final second leg against Colo-Colo.

With a 2-1 win at CA Lanús on March 17, 2009 in the Copa Libertadores 2009 , the Oro y Cielo became the first Chilean team to win in Argentina. Because they did not get more than 1-1 in the last group game against the Mexican representative Chivas Guadalajara , they failed again in the preliminary round of this tournament.

Trainer

player

Already at the first football World Cup in 1930 , Casimiro Torres , who played two games there, was an Everton player.

Guillermo Clavero became Everton's first player in a South American Championship in 1945 . Clavero, who played a total of seven times in the national team, contributed four goals to Chile's third place at the tournament. Fernando Hurtado played in two games in 1953. Striker René Meléndez played four times in the 1956 tournament, in which Chile finished third, and goalkeeper Carlos Espinoza twice. Meléndez is Everton's record national player with 47 games between 1950 and 1960, in which he scored 12 goals, and in 1952 he was the top scorer in South America with 30 goals. Eladio Rojas took part in the 1959 South American Championship and the 1962 World Championship. At the World Cup, he scored the only goal in the game for third place. He later played for CA River Plate and then for the capital club CSD Colo-Colo .

In the 1987 Copa América was Ivo Basay with Chile in the final, but lost there with 0: 1 against Uruguay. His career then took the two-time tournament scorer to France, Mexico and Argentina.
