Sport Club Americano, commonly known as Americano, was a Brazilian football club from Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul state. They won the Campeonato Gaúcho once.
The club was founded on June 4, 1912,[1] as Sport Club Hispano-Americano, changing the name to Sport Club Americano in the following year. They won the Campeonato Gaúcho in 1928.[2] In the 1940s, the club merged with a team owned by a group of students, and it was renamed to Americano-Universitário, but the merge was a failure, and the club folded.
