==History==
Sporting Clube de Goa, as a professional football club, came into existence in 1999, when the public of [[Panjim]] decided to launch an [[association football]] club after Cidade de Goa disbanded its football team. Thus, after [[Vasco SC|Vasco Sports Club]], Sporting became the second club of public shareholding in [[Goa]]. The club, built on the lines of Portuguese club [[Sporting Clube de Portugal]], has made rapid strides in the national circuit. Sporting shot to prominence by an impressive performance in the 2001–02 Federation Cup, the team made it to the last four after victories over stronger teams like [[East Bengal FC]] and [[Indian Bank Recreational Club]].

Sporting made its debut in the [[2003–04 National Football League (India)|2003-04 season of National Football League]], and in [[2004–05 National Football League (India)|2004–05]] they were on the verge of winning their first league championship but lost out on the last day when [[Dempo S.C.|Dempo]] pipped them to the title. Their season was marred by a horrific bus accident that ruled out 4 key players for the whole season, while several others were injured. However, led by Nigerian import [[Dudu Omagbemi]], they managed to complete their matches in a very short span of time after being given a few weeks off so that their players could recover, and heroically came second ahead of traditional powerhouses [[East Bengal F.C.|East Bengal]], [[Mohun Bagan A.C.|Mohun Bagan]], [[Salgaocar F.C.|Salgaocar]] and [[Mahindra United]].<ref name="iloveindia1">{{cite web|url=http://www.iloveindia.com/sports/football/clubs/sporting-clube-goa.html |title=Sporting Clube de Goa – Sporting Clube de Goa Indian Football Club – Sporting Clube de Goa Football Club India |publisher=Iloveindia.com |access-date=2012-07-11}}</ref> Sporting entered into the finals of 2005 [[Federation Cup (India)|Federation Cup]], and emerged as the runner-up. In the 2006 edition of Federation Cup, they reached the finals once again, but lost in penalty shoot-out to [[Mohun Bagan AC]].<ref name="iloveindia1"/><ref>{{Cite web|title=28th Federation Cup 2006|url=http://www.indianfootball.de/seasons/2006-07fedcup.html#:~:text=28th%20Federation%20Cup%202006&text=The%2028th%20Federation%20Cup%20was,12th%20title%20in%20the%20end.|access-date=2021-06-14|website=www.indianfootball.de|archive-date=1 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210701182300/http://www.indianfootball.de/seasons/2006-07fedcup.html#:~:text=28th%20Federation%20Cup%202006&text=The%2028th%20Federation%20Cup%20was,12th%20title%20in%20the%20end.|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=Fed>{{cite web|url=https://www.the-aiff.com/news-center-details.htm?id=6148|title=From the history book, roll of honour|date=10 January 2015}}</ref>

After getting relegated from the I-League in 2010,<ref>{{cite news |title=Eduardo goal saves Sporting |url=https://www.deccanherald.com/content/67008/eduardo-goal-saves-sporting.html |access-date=3 September 2020 |work=Deccan Herald |date=1 May 2010}}</ref> they participated in the [[2011 I-League 2nd Division]] and won promotion by finishing in 2nd place. In the finals of [[2013–14 Indian Federation Cup]], [[Churchill Brothers]] defeated Sporting Goa 3–1.

==Crest==
The sporting crest is supposed to be almost an exact replica of the [[Sporting Clube de Portugal|Sporting CP]], but not completely. One notable difference is that on Sporting Portugal's crest it says "Sporting Portugal", while Sporting Goa's does not. Another difference is that Sporting Portugal's crest is coloured in mostly dark green and yellow, while the Sporting Goa crest is darkish green and white.<ref>[https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/sporting-goa/21/ Sporting Clube de Goa archive] ''worldfootball.net''. Retrieved 15 August 2021</ref>

==Colours==
While the crest of Sporting Goa is green and white, the official club colours are orange and white.<ref>{{cite web|title=Sporting ruin Churchill's dream of I-League crown|url=http://twocircles.net/2008feb16/sporting_ruin_churchills_dream_i_league_crown.html|work=Two Circles|access-date=2 June 2012}}</ref> The club nickname is the Flaming Orange.
