The Querétaro Fútbol Club - today with the addition Gallos Blancos ( German  white cocks ) - is a Mexican football club from Santiago de Querétaro .

history

The original Querétaro FC was founded in 1950 by Alfonso Pachin Niembro and Raúl Ayala to represent the city in the newly created second division , which was first played in 1950/51. Consequently, the club was also one of the founding members of this league. A few years later, the player Herrera Pozas nicknamed his team Gallos. At some point the color name Blanco was added.

In the 1970s, a rivalry developed with the Club Estudiantes de Querétaro, also located in the city . In 1977, both clubs were acquired by the millionaire Armando Presa and given new names: Querétaro FC became Club Atletas Industriales and the university club became Club Atletas Campesinos . After the investor lost interest in both clubs again - which shouldn't take long - they returned to their roots. However, the name "Gallos Blancos" was taken over by the city rivals on this occasion as early as 1982 and was therefore no longer available to Querétaro FC, which had only had its old name since 1988.

The Querétaro Fútbol Club was only to get its old nickname back at the turn of the millennium - and its city rivals as well. Because at this time the two clubs merged under the new name Querétaro Fútbol Club Gallos Blancos .

After the Atletas Campesinos were allowed to sniff already in the seasons 1980/81 and 1981/82 and this Erstligaluft 1986/87 also the first in 1985 by the Televisa group founded and in 1987 in the border city of Ciudad Juarez Kunstverein verfrachteten Cobras Querétaro had managed to put the Traditional club Querétaro FC first league football in the city in 1990. This era ended after four years with the decline in the summer of 1994.

The new merger project has the ambition to represent the city permanently in the top division. For this purpose the license of the ailing CF La Piedad was acquired in the summer of 2002 . But just two years later, the still young club fell victim to the reduction of the Primera División from 20 to 18 teams. Two years later, the "white cocks" won the second division championship - and thus returned to the top division this time solely because of sporting achievements. However, the immediate relegation followed in the summer of 2007, so that Querétaro threatens to develop into an elevator team that was only represented in the second-rate Primera División 'A' in the 2007/08 and 2008/09 seasons . Most recently, the club was again represented in the first division between 2009 and 2013.

In the 2014/15 season , the Brazilian soccer star Ronaldinho played for Querétaro FC and advanced with the team in the 2015 Clausura until the final of the Mexican soccer championship , which was lost to Santos Laguna . Nevertheless, it was the greatest success in the history of the Gallos Blancos so far .

A year and a half after Ronaldinho's departure, the club won its first major title in the Apertura 2016 by winning the Mexican Cup . This triumph was achieved by the following team: Tiago Volpi (goalkeeper, captain and "match winner"), Miguel Ángel Martínez, Juan Forlín, Neri Cardozo , Jaime Gómez Valencia, Jonathan Bornstein , Luis Miguel Noriega, Yerson Candelo, Marco Antonio Jiménez (64. Andrés Rentería), Camilo da Silva Sanvezzo (76th Angel Sepúlveda ), Carlos Fierro (64th Edgar Benítez ). Coach: Víctor Manuel Vucetich .
