Current season

They are the most famous and the most successful Azerbaijani club with eight Azerbaijan Premier League and five Azerbaijan Cup titles. The club is one of the two teams in Azerbaijan, along with Qarabağ which has participated in all Azerbaijan Premier League championships so far.

In 2012, Neftchi Baku became the first Azerbaijani team to advance to the group stage of a European competition, beating APOEL of Cyprus 4–2 on aggregate in the play-off round of the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League.[1][2]Neftchi plays its matches at the Bakcell Arena, which also serves as the venue for Azerbaijan national football team matches.

History

Soviet era (1937–1991)

File:Neftchi Baku PFC first team.jpg
The first Neftchi team in 1937

Neftchi Baku PFK was founded in 1937.[3] During the years of 1937–1967, it was known as Neftyanik and it was renamed Neftchi in 1968.[4]

Neftchi played three spells in the Soviet Top League, in 1949–1950, 1960–1972, and 1977–1988, for a total of 28 years in the top division of Soviet football.[4] The club appeared in the Soviet First League, the second-highest division, from 1946–1948, 1951–1959, 1973–1976, and 1989–1991, with its top finish in 1976 as the runner-up.[4] Neftchi's top scorer in this early era was Azerbaijani footballing legend Alakbar Mammadov, who also played for Dynamo Moscow; Mamedov netted 51 goals in league play during the 1950s and 1960s for the club, despite the prime of his career came in Moscow.[5]

World famous referee Tofiq Bahramov was originally also played for Neftchi but a serious leg injury prevented him from continuing his playing career and he became a referee.[6] He became the first referee to have a stadium and statue named after him.[7][8]

Arguably, the club's greatest achievement was a 3rd place finish in the Soviet Top League in 1966, the highest finish for any Azerbaijani side in the Soviet era.[9] The 1966 squad was made up of many of the all-time great Azerbaijani footballers,[10] including forwards Anatoliy Banishevskiy (the UEFA Golden Player for Azerbaijan) and Kazbek Tuaev, midfielder Aleksandr Trofimov, and goalkeeper Sergey Kramarenko.[11] Fans and journalists in Azerbaijan commemorated the 40th anniversary of Neftchi's success in 2006.[12]

Domestic hegemony (1991–2012)

Neftchi went on to dominate Azerbaijani club football throughout the 1990s. In strong contrast to the Azerbaijan national team's defensive and often criticized style of play at the time, Neftchi achieved success through strict adherence to crowd-pleasing, offensive football. The club became the first Azerbaijani football club ever to win eight domestic titles and five cups.[13][14]

In 2006, Neftchi managed to win the CIS Cup after defeating Kaunas in the final.[15] In European competitions, the club also have advanced to the second qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League twice, having defeated Bosnian champions – Široki Brijeg – and Icelandic champions – FH Hafnarfjarðar – in 2004 and 2005 respectively.[16][17] In 2008, the club advanced to the third round of the 2008 Intertoto Cup, after defeating the Slovak club Nitra and the Belgian side Germinal Berschot in the first two rounds.[18]

A long period of decline followed the success of the 2005 to the end of the decade. Despite the appointment of famous names such as Gurban Gurbanov, Vlastimil Petržela, Anatoliy Demyanenko and Hans-Jürgen Gede, the club did not achieve any success and squandered large sums of money on unsuccessful signings.[19][20] Things changed to positive in December 2009, when the club's control was given to Sadıq Sadıqov.[21] The takeover was immediately followed by a flurry of bids for high profile international players such as, Bahodir Nasimov, Nicolás Canales, Flavinho, Bruno Bertucci, Eric Ramos, Igor Mitreski and Julius Wobay.[22] In May 2010, under Arif Asadov's first season as Neftchi head coach, the club won its sixth championship title.[23][24] Asadov also become first person in Azerbaijan to win the league title as a coach and football player.[25]

In the 2011–12 season, Boyukagha Hajiyev guided Neftchi to another domestic success as club become champions for seventh time in their history.[26][27] In November 2011, Neftchi celebrated its 1000th victory in official games and 1000th goal, which is scored by Araz Abdullayev.[28]

Recent years and European breakthrough (2012–present)

In 2012, Neftchi qualified for the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League group stage, being the first Azerbaijani team to advance to this stage in a European competition.[29] Neftchi managed to get three points in six matches, drawing with Partizan both times and holding Inter Milan at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.[30][31]

A third consecutive Premier League title followed in 2012–13 season.[32][33]Neftchi then won the Azerbaijan Cup on 28 May 2013 to secure the domestic double.[34][35]Following Neftchi's early exit from European cups, Hajiyev resigned from his post.[36][37]

Crest and colours

File:Oldneftchi.jpg
Neftchi's crests during its history

Since the club's foundation, Neftchi have had four main crests, though all underwent minor variations. In 1949, Neftchi adopted as their first crest the image of an oil platform with Russian n letter, which obviously contributed to the Oil Workers nickname, and remained for the next 27 years.[38]

In 1977, Neftchi's crest was changed again as a ball and sunrise background elements added, which was to endure for the next two decades.[38] The club's crest was changed again in 1997 as part of another attempt to modernise and to capitalise on new marketing opportunities.[38] This was the first club badge without oil platform, as it was replaced by the national seal of the Baku. With new ownership, and the club's centenary approaching, combined with demands from fans for the club's traditional badge to be restored, it was decided that the crest should be changed again in 2004. The new crest was officially adopted for the start of the 2004–05 season and marks a return to the older design of the oil platform. As with previous crests, this one has appeared in traditional black and white colours.[38]During the 2010s, the club added golden star above its badge.

Shirt sponsors and kit manufacturers

Neftchi's traditional kit was composed of black shirts, white shorts and socks of the same color. Although through the years these two have gone from alternating between white and black stripes. The club's kits are manufactured by Adidas and sponsored by SOCAR since 2004, a multinational oil and gas corporation from Baku.[39]

Neftchi's away strip has often been all-black, while third kit is all-red. In recent seasons, the third kit has usually been the previous season's away kit.
