A bit of history:
Tauro Fútbol Club is a professional football club located in Panama City, Panama that plays in ANAPROF, the top Panamanian football league. Tauro has won 7 ANAPROF Championships since 1988, the highest total of any team. The club has also finished second 7 times. The team plays its games at Estadio Giancarlo Gronchi also known as La Pedregaleña in Panama City. The team's colors are black and white because it is said that its founder, Giancarlo Gronchi, was a fan of Italian football team Juventus and wanted to have a similar uniform as the Italian side.
Tauro and Plaza Amador have been continuous rivals since ANAPROF started in 1988. They're both from Panama City itself, but do not play in the same stadium. The rivalry is referred to as "El Clásico" in Panama.
