Itumbiara Esporte Clube, usually known simply as Itumbiara, is a Brazilian football club from Itumbiara, Goiás state. The club competed in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A in 1979 and won the state championship in 2008.
On March 9, 1970, Itumbiara Esporte Clube was founded, as a result of the merger of local teams Goiás (founded in 1964) and Nacional (founded in 1952).[1] [2] [3]
In 1979, Itumbiara competed in the top level of the Brazilian Championship, finishing in the 64th position.[4]
In 2008, Itumbiara won the state championship for the first time, after beating Goiás 1–0 and 3–0 in the final.[5]
In 2010, Itumbiara finished state championship on 9th and penultimate place and were relegated to second level. Due to this performance they were qualified to 2011 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D because all 2011 Campeonato Goiano teams withdrew.[6]
