The OSC Lille (officially Olympique Sporting Club Lille Métropole , LOSC for short) is a French football club from the northern French city of Lille . His nickname in France is Les Dogues ( German  "The Doggen" ); Since the 1980s, a corresponding dog has also adorned the club's coat of arms.

history

It was founded in 1902 as Olympique Lillois . The club colors are red and blue. Since the Stade Grimonprez-Jooris, which was built in 1974 and has since been demolished , was to be rebuilt, OSC Lille has played since 2004 in the 18,090-seat Lille Métropole stadium in the neighboring town of Villeneuve-d'Ascq . In the meantime, the sporting home is the new Stade Pierre-Mauroy , completed in 2012 (initially: Grand Stade Lille Métropole), which has a total capacity of over 50,000 spectators.

League affiliation

The northern French mining district around Lille, Tourcoing, Roubaix and Valenciennes, on the border with Belgium, is one of the very early strongholds of French football; From Lille itself, apart from Olympique Lillois, the Iris Club Lillois and SC Fives also played an important role in the ball sport on the other side of the Rhine, which was split into five different associations before the First World War . Olympique merged with these two clubs in 1941 and 1944 and then took on the name Lille Olympique Sporting Club .

Lille was absolutely dominant in the decade after the end of the Second World War: in addition to two championship and five cup titles, the team was also in two other cup finals and was also four times runner-up in France.

In the top division of the OSC Lille was from 1902 to 1914 and (after the introduction of the nationwide Division 1 , renamed Ligue 1 in 2002 ) 1932-1939, 1941-1943, 1945-1956, 1957-1959, 1964-1968, 1971/72 , 1974–1977, 1978–1997 and again since 2000. In between (1969/70) the club had even slipped into the amateur area.

From Lille's runner-up title in 2005, fans in a region in economic upheaval were hoping for the beginning of a new “great football era”. That year, the club qualified for the Champions League , in which the team finished third in the group stage ahead of Manchester United , which was equivalent to qualifying for the sixteenth-finals of the UEFA Cup . In this competition, the LOSC was eliminated in the round of 16 against the eventual title holder FC Sevilla . In the Europa League 2010/11 he made it to the round of 32. After all, the Dogues celebrated their first title in 56 years with the French Cup in 2011 and just weeks later they also won the first French championship title since 1954.

Well-known former players

Women's soccer

Since mid-2015, the club has also had a women's football department for the first time . This was due to the transfer of the women from the neighboring FF Templemars-Vendeville , whose starting place in the second division was taken over by Lille for the 2015/16 season. In the 2017/18 season , the women of the LOSC will compete in the top French division for the first time .
