Barracas Central is a historic football club from the neighborhood of Barracas in Buenos Aires, currently enjoying a remarkable period in the Argentine Primera División. The team plays its home matches at the Estadio Claudio Chiqui Tapia. Founded in 1904, the club's red and white colors have traditionally been associated with the hard-working spirit of its barrio.

The modern era sees them as a newly established top-division side, built on a foundation of collective strength, defensive organization, and tremendous fighting spirit. Players like Iván Tapia have become symbols of this historic journey. Their fan base, though not among the country's largest, is incredibly passionate and local, savoring every moment of this unprecedented chapter. Barracas Central's story is one of dreams realized, proving that with determination, even the most historic neighborhood clubs can reach the pinnacle of Argentine football.
