ALMIRANTE BROWN – HOME SHIRT 2019/2020

Club Almirante Brown is a sports club based in greater Buenos Aires, Argentina. The team currently plays in the second tier of Argentinian football, the Primera Nacional.  

The club is named after the Irish-Argentinian Naval Admiral – William Brown, famous for leading the Argentinian navy to break the Spanish Blockade of the River Plate.

They play at Estadio Fragata Presidente Sarmiento, with a capacity of 25,000.

The team was formed in 1912 and has always played in striking black and yellow stripes.

In 1998 the team was relegated, even after defeating Estudiantes of Buenos Aires in the final game.  However, Almirante fans threw a bomb onto the pitch, which resulted in two of their own players being injured.

The club wore this shirt in their title winning season in 19/20, as they won the Primera B Metropolitana, returning to the 2nd division.
