Sporting Club de Bruxelles
Sporting Club de Bruxelles, also known as Sporting CB, was a short‑lived Belgian football club. It existed for three years, from 1894 to 1897.
It started as Ixelles Sporting Club in 1894 and was renamed Sporting Club de Bruxelles before Belgium’s first national championship in 1895–96. The team played at Avenue Dailly, which could hold about 2,000 spectators, and wore blue and black.
In the 1895–96 Belgian Championship, Sporting finished 3rd, behind F.C. Liégeois and Antwerp FC. In total in the Belgian Domestic League they had 6 wins, 15 losses and 1 draw. The club withdrew during the 1896–97 season and was dissolved in 1897.
A notable match was on 10 January 1897, when Sporting lost 18–0 to Racing Club de Bruxelles—the largest defeat margin in Belgian domestic league history.
