All about the club «Alaves»

This is a professional football club, founded in 1921. The team is based in the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, which is in the north of Spain, in the heart of the Basque Country.

The history of Alaves: the path from an unknown club to the final of the UEFA Cup

\"Alavés\" appeared on the football map of Spain January 23, 1921. The first decades were difficult - the club mainly played in regional leagues and did not have a stable place in the Primera. The team made its way to the elite for the first time in 1930, but did not stay there for long.

The real breakthrough happened at the end of the 90s, when the club experienced its first \"golden decade\". In the 1999/2000 season, Alavés finished in sixth place in La Liga, which made it possible to enter the European Cups for the first time in history.

And the very next season the Basques created a real fairy tale, reaching the UEFA Cup final. Along the way, they knocked out the likes of Inter and Kaiserslautern, and in the decisive match against Liverpool they made the opponent nervous, only losing in extra time with the score 4:5.

\n
\"Then there were years of decline, financial problems and even relegation to the third division. But the club gradually revived.\"

\n
\"Mendisorrosa has gone through several renovations, and the last one in 2019 made the stadium even more modern.\"

Achievements of Alaves

Alavés doesn't have a cupboard full of trophies, but there are moments that are more important than any cups:

UEFA Cup Final (2000/01) is an incredible story that made the club famous throughout the world.

Sixth place in La Liga (1999/2000) – the best season in the Spanish championship, which opened the door to European cups.
