Club Deportivo San Antonio Bulo Bulo is a Bolivian football club based in Entre Ríos, Cochabamba. Founded in 1962, they play in Primera División.
History[edit]
Founded on 31 October 1962, San Antonio won their first title in the Primera A AFC only in 2021.[2] They first appeared in the Copa Simón Bolívar in that year, being knocked out in the quarterfinals by García Agreda.[3]
After winning the Primera A title again in 2022, the club qualified to the 2023 Copa Simón Bolívar. In that competition, they reached the finals, facing GV San José,[4] but lost the title on penalties.[5] Six days after losing the title, however, they achieved promotion to the Primera División for the first time ever, after winning the promotion/relegation play-offs against Libertad Gran Mamoré.[6]
