Goiás Esporte Clube

On 6 April 1943, in a meeting among friends at Lino Barsi's home, Goiás Esporte Clube was founded. In 1973, the team was promoted to the first division of Campeonato Brasileiro. In 1998, the team joined the Clube dos 13 (Clube dos 13 is an organization composed by the greatest teams of Brazil). They won the Série B in 1999 and 2012.

Goiás' stadium is Serrinha, with a maximum capacity of 14,450 people.^[1] However, the club plays several matches at Estádio Serra Dourada, built in 1975, with a maximum capacity of 50,049 people.

In its first year of existence, it was said that Goiás had only 33 fans.^{[citation needed]}

It is currently the football club with the largest number of fans in Goiás, the North and Midwest regions of Brazil, according to a survey conducted by the Gallup Institute, Placar,^[2] Serpes,^[3] and Pluri Consultoria.^[4][5]

Jovem Goiás fans managed to win the support and respect among all the emerald, thus becoming the most vibrant and passionate, which now has approximately 12,000 fans.
