U.C. Sampdoria is a football club based in Genoa, Italy. The club was formed in 1946 from the merger of two existing clubs, Sampierdarenese and Andrea Doria. Sampdoria currently compete in the Italian Serie A. The team's colors are blue, white, red and black. Sampdoria plays at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, capacity 41,917, which it shares with Genoa's other club, Genoa 1893.
Sampdoria won the scudetto in 1991, so far the only time in their history that they have done so, and the club also won the Coppa Italia four times (1985, 1988, 1989, and 1994). They also won the Cup Winners' Cup in 1990. Sampdoria also reached the UEFA Champions League final in 1992, only to lose out against Catalan FC Barcelona.
There has not been much success in the club in the last decade since. Sampdoria achieved a place in the UEFA Cup by finishing 5th in the table at the end of the 2004/05 Serie A season, but did narrowly lose out to Udinese Calcio in taking 4th and a UEFA Champions League spot. Sampdoria's appearance in the UEFA Cup was brief as they finished 4th in a group of 5. The team obtained 5 points from one win, two draws and a loss in Group C.
