Alicante Club de Fútbol is a Spanish football team based in Alicante, in the Valencian autonomous community. Founded in 1918, it plays in Segunda División B, holding home matches at Estadio José Rico Pérez, with a 30,000 capacity.
[edit] HistoryAfter two early denominations, Alicante CF was born in 1942, and spent the vast majority of its early existence in Tercera División. It also had very brief spells in the second division (1939–40 - as Alicante Football Club - 1951–52 and 1956–58). For eight years in the 60's, it also acted as neighbours Hércules CF's feeder club. In the 2000's, the club firmly established itself as one of the third level's strongest sides, only to consecutively miss promotion in the playoffs. In 2007–08, Alicante returned once again to the second category. Also in that season, it valliantly exited in the Spanish cup fourth round, after a 2–3 aggregate loss against La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid. Facing severe economic problems, the club produced a respectable first part of the season in the second division campaign, but was eventually relegated back. [edit] Current squad
