The team currently plays in Ligue 2, the second tier of French football, and is coached by Albert Riera.[4][5]
Bordeaux was founded on 1 October 1881 as a multi-sports club and is one of the most successful football clubs in France. The club has won six Division 1/Ligue 1 titles, the last in 2009. Bordeaux have also won four Coupe de France titles, three Coupe de la Ligue titles, and three Trophée des champions titles as well. In international competitions Bordeaux reached the UEFA Cup final in 1996 and the Latin Cup final in 1950.
