La Luz Tacurú FC
La Luz Fútbol Club (often called La Luz) is a professional Uruguayan football club from Aires Puros, Montevideo, who currently play in the Uruguayan Segunda División. History A group of friends by the names, Luis Rivero, Luis Enrico, and Jose Ruecco, were at a bar in the Aires Puros barrio of Montevideo, when they had an idea of founding a new football club. However, they struggled to find a name for the new club. The bar they were in was one of the few buildings in the area that had electricity by that time, and this is where the name "La Luz" came from. The new club was officially founded on 19 April 1929 as La Luz Football Club, adopting white kits. For much of its early history in the 1930s and 40s the club was competing in the amateur divisions at the time like the Division Extra and Division Intermedia. In 1962, the club won the Intermedia title and was promoted for the first time to the second division (Primera B). The club has some good campaigns during their first fe ...

Racing Club De Montevideo
Racing Club de Montevideo is a professional football club from Montevideo in Uruguay. It currently participates in the Uruguayan Primera División since winning the Torneo Competencia in 2022. Racing CM is known as "La Escuelita" (The Little School) due to the high standard of players that have emerged from their teams. Racing is one of Uruguay's traditional teams, in terms of victories and fans. Recently, Racing has faced economic problems and struggled to remain consistent and perform well at the Uruguayan League. This drove the club toward economic reorganization and a transformation into a sports corporation (SAD), as is customary in Europe. An associated investment program created the basis for sporting promotion to Uruguay's first division in 2022. In the 22/23 season, the promoted team qualified for the qualifying round of the Copa Sudamericana at the first attempt. Following this change, Red&Gold Football, a joint venture between FC Bayern Munich and Los Angeles FC, b ...

Peñarol
Club Atlético Peñarol (), more commonly referred to as Peñarol, is a Uruguayan professional football club based in Montevideo. The club currently competes in the Uruguayan Primera División, the highest tier in Uruguayan football. The name of the club comes from the neighborhood on the outskirts of Montevideo, which itself takes its name from Pinerolo, a town in the metropolitan area of Turin, in the Italian region of Piedmont. The club's origin dates back to the 28th of September 1891, when the club was initially established as the Central Uruguay Railway Cricket Club (also known by its acronym CURCC), founded by mostly British railway workers for the practise of cricket. The club was renamed as Peñarol on 13 December 1913; the continuity between the football section of the CURCC and Peñarol has sparked significant controversy in Uruguayan football, as some football pundits have argued that while Peñarol inherited its tradition from the CURCC and there is a sociolog ...
