Description

Sporting Cristal is a Peruvian football team based in the district of Rímac, in the department of Lima. The club was founded on December 13, 1955. The teams original name was Sporting Tabaco but renamed when a beer company bought it. Cristal has won the league title fifteen times, the Peruvian team with the third-most domestic titles. It is one of the most popular soccer teams in Peru—along with Universitario de Deportes and Alianza Lima—and is the youngest of the three. In 1997, it became the second Peruvian soccer club to reach the final of the Copa Libertadores.

They currently play in the Peruvian First Division but are under the threat of being relegated to the second division. Although being one of the most popular soccer clubs in Peru, they do not own their own stadium and choose between the Estadio San Martín de Porres and the Estadio Nacional.
