Entente Sportive de Sétif (Template:Lang-ar) (Template:IPA-fr), commonly referred to as ES Sétif or ESS for short, is an Algerian professional football club based in Sétif currently playing in the Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1. The club was founded in 1958 and plays its games at the Stade 8 Mai 1945.
ES Sétif is one of the most successful clubs in Algeria having won the Algerian Ligue Professionnelle 1 4 times and the Algerian Cup a record eight times. They are also one of only three Algerian clubs to have won the African Cup of Champions Clubs, winning the 1988 edition. They have also won the Arab Champions League twice, doing so in 2007 and 2008.
History
The club was founded in 1958 by Ali Benaouda and Ali Layass as Entente Sportive Sétifienne (ESS), the name was later changed to Entente Pétroliers Sétifienne (E.P.S) in 1977, and again in 1984 it became known as Entente Plastique Sétifienne (E.P.S) and was then later changed back to Entente Sportive Sétifienne (ESS).[1]
The first colours of the club were green and the white, and following a confrontation with the French Army in a match with FC Gadir on May 8, 1945 colours changed to black and white as a sign of sadness for the events on this day. The Guessan Stadium was the original name for the club's home.
ES Sétif is one of the prestigious top flight Algerian clubs. The club has won the Algerian Cup 8 times, and is the only Algerian team to have won the Afro-Asia cup, in 1989 in Qatar.
Since its foundation, ES Sétif has had 19 presidents, the first being Ibrahim Dokomi.[citation needed]. The current president is Hassan Hammar.
African success
In 1988, ES Sétif won the African Cup of Champions Clubs by beating Iwuanyanwu Nationale of Nigeria 4-1 on aggregate in the final.[2] After losing the first leg 1-0 in Liberty Stadium, Ibadan, ES Sétif scored 4 goals in the return leg in Constantine to lift the trophy. ES Sétif were playing in the Algerian second division at time and are the only club in Africa to date to have won the African Cup of Champions Clubs while not being in the top flight.
By winning the 1988 African Cup of Champions Clubs, ES Sétif qualified for the 1989 Afro-Asian Club Championship, where they faced Al-Sadd of Qatar, winners of the 1988–89 Asian Club Championship. ES Sétif won both legs, 2-0 at home and 3-1 in Doha, to lift the trophy.[3] They are the only Algerian club to have won the competition.
On June 29, 2010, ES Sétif became the first fully professional club in Algeria.[4]
On August 8, 2010, ES Sétif defeated CS Sfaxien of Tunisia 1–0 to win the first-ever edition of the UNAF Super Cup.[5]
