Description

Club Atlético Banfield is an Argentina professional football club from Banfield, a village in Buenos Aires Province 14km south of Buenos Aires. The club was founded in 1896 and was named after Edward Banfield, a British executive of the railway company Gran Ferrocarril Sur.

The club is also referred as El Taladro (The Drill), because in 1930 the 'El Pampero' newspaper said the Banfield forwards "drilled" rival defences. Banfield is traditionally one of the best supported clubs in the south of Greater Buenos Aires metropolitan area, and the biggest club in Lomas de Zamora Partido.
