What are Argentina's Top Football Competitions?
The organisation of football in Argentina has undergone a number of changes over the years. However, the most recent amendments have given the nation a league and cup structure which is now very similar to those in operation elsewhere :
- Primera División: The home of the most famous club sides in the Argentinian game, including heavyweights such as Boca Juniors and River Plate, this 24-team division – which goes under the official title of Liga Profesional de Fútbol – is the top tier of the league system. Up for grabs are the league trophy and places in the prestigious Copa Libertadores for the top four finishers.
- Primera B Nacional: The second rung on the league ladder has recently been expanded to incorporate 32 teams. The competing sides are divided into two groups of 16, who then battle it out for two places in the Primera División.
- Copa Argentina: Previously open only to top-flight clubs, Argentina’s premier knock out cup competition is now open to all 87 clubs who make up the league system, bringing it more into line with the likes of the FA Cup in England.
- The National Team: Playing their home games at El Monumental, La Albiceleste (The White and Sky Blues) are the pride of the country and have proven to be one of the more successful national sides throughout their history. They currently take part in the World Cup and Copa America.

Who are the biggest teams (clubs) in Argentinian Football?
Argentina has a rich footballing history and features many huge domestic clubs, the biggest of which are well known far beyond the country’s borders. But who are the most famous sides in the South American nation :
- Boca Juniors: Playing in the top-flight of the Argentinian game ever since first being promoted back in 1913, this side from Buenos Aires are now the most successful club in the country, with 69 national titles to their name.
- River Plate: Boca may have the most titles overall but in the Piméra division era it is fellow Buenos Aires side, River Plate, who boast the most wins, with 36 in all. Traditionally a more upper-class side than fierce rivals Boca, River Plate are nicknamed “The Millionaires”.
- Indepediente: Located in Avellaneda in the Greater Buenos Aires region, the side often referred to simply as “El Rojo” (The Red) are historically one of the five biggest clubs in the country - and the only side to ever win the Copa Libertadores on four successive occasions.
- Racing Club: Another of the traditional big five, the blue and whites of Racing are also based in Avellaneda, and as such, boast a strong historical rivalry with Independiente. One of the first truly great Argentinian club sides, Independiente went through the entire season unbeaten not once, but five times, between 1913 and 1919.
- San Lorenzo: With origins tracing back to a group of youths who played in a church backyard, and being named after the resident priest at the time, San Lorenzo have grown to be one of the five biggest clubs in the country – winning the Primera Division title on 15 occasions.
- Estudiantes: Going under the slightly bizarre nickname of “Los Pincharratas” (The Rat Stabbers), and also based in Buenos Aires, Estudiantes were the first side outside of the traditional “big five” to lift the league title.
Which are the Top Derbies in Argentinian Football?
Argentinian football, and football in South America in general, is famed for the passion of its dedicated fans, and nowhere is this passion more in evidence than in the nations biggest Derby fixtures.
- Superderby (Boca Juniors vs River Plate): If there is one game which puts all others in the shade, then it surely this clash between the two most successful clubs in the history of the Argentinian game. With over 70% of football fans in the country pledging allegiance to one of these two sides, this is easily the most watched and anticipated fixture of the season.
- Avellaneda Derby (Independiente vs Racing): Second on the list comes another clash between two sides from the Greater Buenos Aires region. Both based in the city of Avellaneda, these two first met way back in 1905, and there has been no love lost ever since. The history of this game includes overturned results, eight players being sent off in single match, and abandoned fixtures!
- Rosario Derby (Newell’s Old Boys vs Rosario Central): This is probably the biggest fixture of the season between sides not based in Buenos Aires. Animosity between the two Rosario clubs stems from an early charity game arranged for a Leper colony. Rosario Central refused to play in the fixture, with Newell’s Old Boys stepping in to replace them. Rosario have been known as the “scoundrels” ever since, with Newell’s being nicknamed the “lepers”.
- Neighbourhood Derby (Huracan vs San Lorenzo): Another Buenos Aires derby fixture sees a clash between these two sides who both feature amongst the ten most successful clubs in the Argentinian game. Located in bordering districts of the city, at one time the stadiums of the two clubs were only 500m apart.
- La Plata Derby (Estudiantes vs Gimnasia): Fames for the intense feeling, and at times hatred, shown between the two sets of fans, this fixture sees the meeting of the two biggest sides from one of the largest cities in the east of the country. So intense is this rivalry that Gimnasia fans have reportedly made threats to their own team, insisting that they deliberately lose to a title challenger, in order to prevent Estudiantes lifting the trophy!
Who are Argentinian Football’s Most Famous Players?
There can’t be too many nations who can top Argentina when it comes to the most famous players in footballing history. Picking a top five is no easy task, but the below list represents a selection of the South American nations all-time greats – headed by two of the most scintillating talents in the history of the sport.
- Lionel Messi: In the eyes of many, the most gifted player ever to lace up a pair of boots; Barcelona’s little magician is quite simply a joy to watch. Incredible with the ball at his feet, and an exceptional maker and taker of chances, Messi has broken about just every record there is in La Liga and is a six time winner of the Ballon d’Or.
- Diego Maradona: Similarly built to Messi and also a prodigiously talented dribbler and finisher, it was Diego Maradona who was the darling of the Argentinian game throughout the 1980’s and early 90’s. More renowned as a playmaker than a goal-scorer, Maradona nevertheless boasted an excellent strike rate and led his country to the World Cup title in 1986.
- Mario Kempes:The second World Cup winner on our list, Kempes not only claimed a winners medal in 1978, but also won the Golden Boot and Golden Ball, becoming only the third player to be awarded all three accolades in the same tournament. Nicknamed “El Matador”, the prolific Kempes was a deadly finisher in and around the area.
- Alfredro di Stefano: Possibly the first truly great Argentinian footballer, Di Stefano was a graceful and powerful forward who played most of his club football for Real Madrid, where he is still regarded as one of the most talented performers in the history of the club. A five-time European Cup winner with the European giants, Di Stefano scored in each of those five finals.
- Gabriel Batistuta: The man nicknamed “Batigol” may not have been as naturally gifted with the ball at his feet as the likes of Maradona or Messi, but he had few peers when it came to putting the ball in the back of the net. A prolific goal scorer for club and country, Batistuta was a league winner in Argentina and Italy, and remains the only player to score a hattrick in two World Cup Finals tournaments.
Who has won the most Argentinian Soccer Titles per Competition?
Buenos Aires is, by some distance, the most dominant region in the Argentinian game; a fact which is certainly reflected in the lists of the most successful sides in the countries major league and cup competitions.
- Primera Division: 1. River Plate (36 wins) , 2. Boca Juniors (34 wins) , 3. Racing (18 wins)
- Copa Argentina: 1. Boca Juniors & River Plate (3 wins) , 2. Arsenal, Huracán & Rosario Central (1 win each)
