'''Esporte Clube Bahia''' ({{IPA|pt|isˈpɔʁtʃi ˈklubi baˈi.ɐ}}) is a Brazilian professional [[association football]] club based in [[Salvador, Bahia|Salvador]], the capital city of the [[States of Brazil|Brazilian state]] of [[Bahia]]. Known mainly as the ''Esquadrão de Aço'' (Steel Squadron), the club competes in the [[Campeonato Baiano]], Bahia's state league, and the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the highest division of the [[Brazilian football league system]].

Bahia has won the ''Brasileirão'' title twice: in [[1959 Taça Brasil|1959]], where they defeated [[Santos FC|Santos]]' ''Santásticos'' with the likes of [[Gilmar]], [[Mauro Ramos]], [[Mengálvio]], [[Coutinho (footballer, born 1943)|Coutinho]], [[Pepe (footballer, born 1935)|Pepe]] and [[Pelé]] in the final, and in [[1988 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1988]] over [[Sport Club Internacional|Internacional]] with the team sealing the title at [[Estádio Beira-Rio|Beira Rio]], Internacional's stadium. The team has appeared in the [[Copa Libertadores]] four times, reaching the quarter-finals in [[1989 Copa Libertadores|1989]] – their best-ever performance. After 22 years out of international competition, Bahia returned in 2012 when they qualified for the [[Copa Sudamericana]], an achievement repeated seven more times, the last in 2021. The club has also won their state title a record 51 times. The club also has five titles in the [[Copa do Nordeste]], in: 2001, 2002, 2017, 2021 and 2025.

Bahia had played its home games with 66,080 people capacity [[Estádio Fonte Nova]] from 1951 to 2007, when [[Estádio Fonte Nova#History|a section of the stadium collapsed]] killing seven Bahia fans. The ''Tricolor'' played at the Joia da Princesa stadium in Feira de Santana in 2008, and from 2009 to 2013 at the [[Estádio de Pituaçu]] in Salvador. With the reopening of the Fonte Nova stadium in 2013 as the [[Itaipava Arena Fonte Nova|Arena Fonte Nova]], a modern arena built for the [[2014 FIFA World Cup]], Bahia resumed playing its matches there. The club's home uniform consists of white shirts with blue shorts and red socks. It has a fierce long-standing rivalry with [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]], known as [[:pt:Ba-Vi|Ba-Vi]].

In December 2022, it was announced that [[City Football Group]], a subsidiary of [[Abu Dhabi United Group]], had bought a majority stake of Bahia's [[Sociedade Anônima do Futebol|SAF]], after the takeover was approved in a voting session between club members.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=https://www.esporteclubebahia.com.br/nota-oficial-59/ |language=en |access-date=3 December 2022 |date=3 December 2022|title= Nota Oficial}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=3 December 2022 |title=Sócios do Bahia aprovam a venda de 90% da SAF ao Grupo City |url=https://ge.globo.com/ba/futebol/times/bahia/noticia/2022/12/03/socios-do-bahia-aprovam-a-venda-de-90percent-da-saf-ao-grupo-city.ghtml |access-date=5 May 2023 |website=ge |language=pt-BR}}</ref> The acquisition was completed in May 2023, as CFG officially acquired 90% of the club's shares.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Alencar |first=Mauricio |date=4 May 2023 |title=Man City's parent group buys Brazilian side EC Bahia for £158m |url=https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/4487679/2023/05/04/manchester-city-bahia-purchase/ |access-date=5 May 2023 |website=The Athletic}}</ref><ref name=":2">{{Cite web |last=Machaddo |first=Rafael |date=4 May 2023 |title=Agora é oficial! - Notícias Esporte Clube Bahia |url=https://www.esporteclubebahia.com.br/agora-e-oficial-4/ |access-date=5 May 2023 |website=Esporte Clube Bahia |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref name=":3">{{Cite web |last1=Carneiro |first1=Raphael |last2=Melo |first2=Ruan |last3=Lemos |first3=Tiago |date=4 May 2023 |title=Bahia conclui venda da SAF para o City, e CEO garante: "Vai ser o segundo maior clube do grupo" |url=https://ge.globo.com/ba/futebol/times/bahia/noticia/2023/05/04/bahia-conclui-venda-da-saf-para-o-city-e-ingressa-no-grupo-de-forma-oficial.ghtml |access-date=5 May 2023 |website=ge |language=pt-BR}}</ref>

==History==
===Early years and the first national title===
[[File:Time do Bahia na Taça Brasil.tif|left|thumb|Bahia's team, 1959. [[Brazilian National Archives|National Archives of Brazil.]]]]

The Esporte Clube Bahia was founded on the New Year's Day of 1931 when players from two clubs decided to merge. The Associação Atlética da Bahia and the Clube Bahiano de Tênis had decided to discontinue their football divisions. A few years later Bahia became the most popular team in the Northeast of Brazil.{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}}

In the club's first year, Bahia won the Torneio Inicio and Bahia State Championship. The first Bahia president was Waldemar Costa, a doctor. Bahia's crest is based on Corinthians'{{Citation needed|date=June 2015}}. Bahia's state flag, created by Raimundo Magalhães, was used in place of the São Paulo state flag.

The team was founded with the motto "Nasceu para Vencer" (Born to Win). Bahia won 50 State Championships, 21 more than the Vitória (their rival club), and was the first club to participate in Taça Libertadores da America in 1960.

Between 1959 and 1963, and in 1968, the club represented the state of Bahia in Taça Brasil (the precursor of the Brazilian Championship), winning the title in 1959 and finishing as runner-up in 1961 and 1963.

===The 1980s and the second national title===
The 1980s were the best in Bahia's history. Bahia won their second national title in 1988, finishing 5th in 1986 and 4th in 1990.

In 1988, Bahia won its second [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Brazilian Championship]] against the [[Sport Club Internacional|Internacional]] from [[Porto Alegre]] Bahia won the first leg in [[Salvador, Bahia|Salvador]] by 2–1. The second leg ended in an 0–0 tie-in [[Porto Alegre]] at the [[Estádio Beira-Rio|Beira Rio Stadium]]. After these results, Bahia won the ''Brasileirão'', their second national title. The championship gave Bahia the right to play [[Copa Libertadores]] for the third time. It was a shock for the southern press {{Citation needed|reason=at least two links to press coverage needed|date=June 2015}} because Salvador is in the Northeast and the victory was over the Internacional, a team from southern Brazil, the region that has the highest [[Human Development Index]] in the country.

===Dark years===
In 1997, Bahia was relegated to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B]] for the first time in its history after a 0–0 draw against the [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] at the Fonte Nova stadium. In 1999 Bahia was close to being promoted to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]] again. Bahia had a very good season but finished in 3rd place, which was not enough to see them promoted.

In 2000, due to bribery scandals involving clubs such as the [[São Paulo FC|São Paulo]] and the [[Sport Club Internacional|Internacional]], the team returned to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Brazilian First Division]], invited by the [[Clube dos 13]], along with the [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], which was made a scapegoat for the controversy and was nationally victimized by the media (see [[Clube dos Treze#2000 Copa João Havelange|Copa João Havelange]]).

In 2002 the bank that had sponsored the team went bankrupt and the Bahia began a descent down the Brazilian football pyramid. After the title of the Northeast Cup in 2001 and 2002, Bahia performed poorly in 2003 and was relegated to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B]] for the second time in the club's history. In 2004, the team was close to getting promoted to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]] again, finishing 4th. In order to be promoted, Bahia would have to win the final match against the Brasiliense, but the referee Paulo César de Oliveira was assigned to that match and many people {{who|date=June 2015}} say he was all but fair on that day. In 2005, the club again competed in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B]], finishing in 18th place, and was relegated to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série C|Série C]] for the first time in the club's history.

===Fênix tricolor (tricolored phoenix)===
Bahia finished 2007 among the first four teams of the Third Division and was promoted to the Second Division for the 2008 season. The Bahia began strongly, but in the last game of the 3rd stage of the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série C|Série C]] against the already-eliminated Fast Club, Bahia needed a win to advance to the final. The victory came in the last minute of the game with a goal scored by Charles. In the final, the team finished the third division in 2nd place, only losing the title in the final round.{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}} This moment is called the "Fênix Tricolor" amongst Bahia fans.{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}} The phoenix represents Bahia rising from the ashes.

Despite playing in the Third Division of Brazilian football in 2007, Bahia had the largest average attendance in Brazil: 40,400 people per match.{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}} No club in the Third, the Second, or even the First Division was able to match it.{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}} However, this is not unusual for Bahia, having also achieved the biggest average attendance in Brazil in 2004 (Second Division), 1988 (First Division), 1986 (First Division), and 1985 (First Division).{{Citation needed|date=September 2010}}

===Recent years and CFG takeover===
From 2010 to 2014 Bahia remained in the first division. In 2013, a fan takeover lead the club to pursue more [[Left-wing politics|left-wing]] and socially engaged politics, focusing on racism, LGBTQ rights, the demarcation of indigenous lands and the treatment of female fans in football stadiums. At the same time, they have managed to reduce ticket prices, increase revenues, pay off some of the debt that was crippling the club and improve their results on the pitch.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Law |first=Joshua |date=2019-11-13 |title=How Bahia became the most progressive football club in Brazil |url=http://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/nov/13/bahia-progressive-football-club-brazil-prices-fans-political-issues-love |access-date=2022-08-13 |website=the Guardian |language=en}}</ref>

In 2014 they were relegated to the second division again but came back in 2016. After 22 years out of international competition, Bahia returned in 2012 when they qualified for the [[Copa Sul-Americana]], and seven more times, the last in 2021. In addition, they won the 2012, 2014, 2015 state championship and in 2023 he won his 50th title.

In February 2018 the intense rivalry between Bahia and Esporte Clube Vitória drew international attention when nine players (four from Bahia and five from Vitória) were shown the [[penalty card#Red card|red card]] in a State Championship match.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/campeonatos/baiano/ultimas-noticias/2018/02/19/sumula-confirma-vitoria-por-3-a-0-do-bahia-sobre-o-vitoria.htm |title=Súmula do Ba-Vi confirma triunfo por 3 a 0 do Bahia sobre o Vitória |language=Portuguese |newspaper=[[Universo Online]] |date=19 February 2018 |access-date=6 June 2023}}</ref>

In December 2022, it was announced that [[City Football Group]], a subsidiary of [[Abu Dhabi United Group]], had bought majority stake of Bahia, following a voting session between club members that saw 98.6% of voters accept the takeover.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> The acquisition was completed in May 2023, as CFG officially acquired 90% of the club's shares, with the original administration keeping the remaining 10% of shares, as well as full rights over club heritage items, including shirt colors and the emblem.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /><ref name=":3" /> Bahia became the thirteenth football club to join City Football Group, and the third South American team to ever do so, following [[Montevideo City Torque]] and parent club [[Club Bolívar]].<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":3" />

==Symbols==
{{Commons|Esporte Clube Bahia kits}}
Bahia's colors are blue, red, and white. The blue color pays homage to the Associação Atlética da Bahia; white, to the Clube Baiano de Tênis; and red for the Bahia state flag. The club's mascot is called ''Super-Homem Tricolor'' (Tricolor [[Superman]]), created by [[Ziraldo]] in 1979 based on the club's nickname "''Esquadrão de Aço''" (''Steel Squad'') and wears a costume very similar to the original Superman's costume.

==Stadium==
Bahia played at the [[Estádio Fonte Nova|Fonte Nova stadium]] from its inauguration in 1951 until November 2007.
During the game against the Vila Nova (during Bahia's promotion campaign) a part of the stadium collapsed. Seven people died and more than 30 were injured.

After that episode, the state government declared that the stadium would be demolished. [[Arena Fonte Nova|A new stadium]] was built on the site for the [[2014 FIFA World Cup]].

Some notable games at the Fonte Nova:

* Bahia : [[Sport Club Internacional|Internacional]] 2–1 ([[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]]&nbsp;– Final&nbsp;– 1988)
* Bahia : [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]] 2–1 ([[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]]&nbsp;– Semi-finals&nbsp;– 1988)
* Bahia : [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] 4–1 ([[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]]&nbsp;– 2000)
* Bahia : [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] 3–1 ([[Copa Nordeste|Northeast Cup]]&nbsp;– Final&nbsp;– 2001)
* Bahia : [[Nacional Fast Clube|Fast Club]] 1–0 ([[Campeonato Brasileiro Série C|Série C]]&nbsp;– 3rd Stage&nbsp;– 2007)

In April, Bahia was back to the [[Arena Fonte Nova]]
