Júbilo Iwata ( Japanese ジ ュ ビ ロ 磐田 , Jubiro Iwata ; from Portuguese : júbilo = joy ) is one of the most successful clubs in Japan 's men's professional football league J. League . The team from the city of Iwata ( Shizuoka Prefecture ) has already won every major Japanese competition as well as the Asian Cup (forerunner of the AFC Champions League ).

The "association" is a stock corporation founded in 1992 with headquarters in Iwata, the KK Yamaha Football Club ( 株式会社 ヤ マ ハ フ ッ ト ボ ー ル ク ラ ブ , kabushiki-gaisha Yamaha futtobōru kurabu ; English Yamaha Football Club Co., Ltd. ).

Club history

Júbilo was founded in 1972 under the name Yamaha Hatsudōki Soccer-bu , English Yamaha FC , as a works team for the motorcycle manufacturer Yamaha . After rapid development, Yamaha rose to the top Japanese league in 1978 (which at that time was still a pure amateur league) and in 1982 won the first major competition, the Japanese Kaiser Cup (comparable to the DFB Cup in Germany). After the first championship title in 1988 at the latest, the team from Iwata was one of the big names in emerging Japanese football.

When the Japanese Football Association (JFA) decided to introduce a professional league in the early 1990s, Yamaha would have liked to have been a founding member. However, a disappointing 1991 season ultimately led to them not being considered when establishing the J. League. Nevertheless, the works team was outsourced to an independent company (in which Yamaha is still the largest shareholder) and, like the new professional clubs, renamed: Júbilo Iwata . The Portuguese name was supposed to convey South American flair and enjoyment of the game - apparently with success: after the premiere season in 1993, Júbilo and Bellmare Hiratsuka became the first team to be promoted to the J. League, which they have not left since.

Since the rise, Júbilo has been steadily improving, which was not least due to foreign helpers: for the first professional season, the management signed the Dutch coach Hans Ooft and the former Oranje national player Gerald Vanenburg (later as a player and coach at 1860 Munich ). During the season, the Italian Salvatore Schillaci ( World Cup top scorer 1990 ) was added, and the following year, Carlos Dunga (formerly VfB Stuttgart ), the captain of the current Brazilian world championship team, was added. This team went steadily upwards ( Toto Schillaci alone scored 56 goals in 78 games for Iwata), and in 1997 they qualified as autumn champions for the final of the Japanese championship, which they promptly won against defending champion Kashima Antlers .

The biggest success for Júbilo so far was winning the Asian national championship cup the following year. The team reached the final in the two following years, but lost each time. Two more championships followed, a victory in the Yamazaki Nabisco Cup , the Japanese league cup , and most recently in 2003 the second cup victory after 1982.
