Viking F.K.

Viking F.K. is a Norwegian football club from the city of Stavanger. The club was founded in 1899 as football was becoming increasingly popular. It is one of the great aristocrats of Norwegian football, having won 8 Norwegian Premier Football League titles, last in 1991, and 5 domestic cup titles. The club has played and won more top-flight league games than any other club, and it has played in the top division since the league was established, except for the years 1966-67 and 1987-88. Its most recent claim to fame on a continental scale came during the 2002-03 season, when it eliminated English giants Chelsea from the UEFA Cup.
