History

edit

Founded in 1928, Toledo played in regional football and the lower reaches of the national game until earning back-to-back promotions to make the Segunda División for the first time in 1993, under manager Gonzalo Hurtado. The team won a playoff group ahead of Deportivo Alavés, Real Jaén and UE Sant Andreu, and then came fourth in the second tier in 1993–94.[3]

In 1994–95, Toledo reached a best-ever last 16 of the Copa del Rey before losing 3–1 on aggregate to RCD Mallorca.[4] A seven-year spell in the second tier ended with finishing dead last in 1999–2000, but the team had a famous result on 13 December 2000 when they won 2–1 at home to Real Madrid in the last 64 of the cup,[5] before losing by a single goal to visitors Rayo Vallecano in the next round.

Since their 2000 relegation, Toledo have spent over 20 years between the third and fourth tiers. In that time, the team have twice been eliminated from the last 32 of the cup by La Liga opponents: in 2001–02 (3–2 home extra-time loss to Athletic Bilbao)[6] and 2016–17 (4–1 on aggregate to Villarreal CF).[7]
