Club Atletico de Madrid Femenino (commonly known as Atletico Madrid Women or Atleti Femenino) is a Spanish women's football team based in Madrid that play in Primera Division. It is the women's section of Atletico Madrid.
History
Atletico Madrid had a women's team for the first time in the late 1980s. They won the national league in 1990 and were second the following year, but just like Atletico's handball team, they were disbanded in the early 1990s. Most players joined CD Oroquieta Villaverde, which became one of Spain's leading teams.
The team was re-established in 2001 though they did not become an official section of the club until 2005. After playing three seasons in regional leagues, between 2004 and 2006 Atletico earned two successive promotions to reach the top category. Quickly consolidating themselves in the top half of the table, they secured fourth place in 2009–10.
On 7 October 2015, Atletico made their UEFA Women's Champions League debut. In the round of 32, they eliminated Zorky Krasnogorsk, but in the round of 16, they were swept aside by Olympique Lyon, eventual winners of the competition.
