Happy Birthday Everton

On this day in 1909 Everton de Viña del Mar Football Club was founded in Chile.

The club was founded after a group of Anglo-Chilean teenagers formed a football club and named it after the English team Everton that had just made a pioneering visit to South America.

The club are nicknamed "Ruleteros" or the roulette players in English, after Viña del Mar's status as a gambling resort.

Everton played Everton at Goodison Park in a historic game on 4th August 2010 in which Everton won 2-0.

Happy Birthday!!  ¡Cumpleaños feliz!
