Club Atlético Belgrano won the First Division title of Argentine football, marking a milestone in the club's history. With this title obtained in the Apertura 2026 tournament, the Pirata enters the select group of 30 clubs that have managed to lift the League trophy in the 135 years of professional history since 1891. The conquest of the team led by Ricardo Zielinski is the culmination of an identity forged since its founding on March 19, 1905, in the Alberdi neighborhood by a group of adolescent fans of the new game that arrived in Argentina: football. The five Lascano brothers (Esteban, Balbino, Nicolás, José, and Ricardo), Telmo Baigorria, Ernesto Barabraham, Nicolás Flores, Ramón Quiroga, and Arturo Orgaz, among others, spurred the beginning of one of the most popular clubs in the city. In 1908, the CAB joined the Second Division championships of the Córdoba League and, after achieving three consecutive titles that required the regulation of the time, in 1910 it rose to First Division. In 1913, the Córdoba Federation was established, marking the beginning of official organization. Belgrano was part of the founding clubs. It was crowned the first champion of Córdoba football, and in its amateur era, until 1932, it became the maximum winner of titles with nine championships obtained (1913, 1914, 1917, 1919, 1920, 1929, 1930, 1931, and 1932). The path to definitive consecration was not easy: after 903 games in the top category, Belgrano broke the curse for Córdoba football, which had seen its illusions frustrated with the finals lost by Talleres against Independiente in the National 77 and by Racing de Córdoba against Rosario Central in the National 80. As Mauricio Coccolo, the journalist, pointed out, the Pirata reasserts its pioneering condition in the province: it was the first champion of the Córdoba League in 1913, the first to provide a player to the National Team with Miguel Dellavalle in 1920, the first to build a concrete stadium in 1929, a pioneer in AFA competitions with the Copa Beccar Varela in 1933, which had an international character because the Uruguayan teams also participated and won Central Córdoba de Rosario, the first to be crowned champion of a national tournament organized by the Federal Council with the Regional 1986 and the first female champion in Primera A in 2025.
