Final Tables Argentina Second Level 1935-2006/2007


Previous history

The first championship of football played in Argentina was held in 1891 and was organized by the Argentine Association Football League.
 Excepting a year without competition (1892), the championships were played regularly since 1893. There isn't a Second Level to 1899, 
when the "Segunda División" (Second Division) was created. The new division not promoted teams to the First Level in the early years, 
and the Champion continued playing in the Second Level. Banfield, which competed in the First Level in 1898, joined the new division 
by its own decision, and was the first champion of this category. In these years it was usual that the First Level clubs played in the 
Second Level with their "second teams" (reserves). 

Segunda División champions:

1899	Banfield
1900	Banfield
1901	Barracas Athletic
1902	Belgrano Athletic "B" (second team)
1903	Barracas Athletic "B" (second team)
1904	Barracas Athletic "B" (second team)
1905	América
1906	Estudiantes "B" (second team)

Since 1907 champions were promoted to the First Level.

1907	Nacional
1908	River Plate
1909	Gimnasia y Esgrima 
1910	Racing Club

In 1911 the Second Level division was renamed as "Intermedia". The division named "Segunda Division" becomes 
a third Level tournament.

Intermedia champions:

1911	Estudiantes de La Plata

In 1912 the Association split up and the Argentinian football was divided in two separate leagues named Asociación 
Argentina de Football and Federación Argentina de Football. Both of them had their respective second level tournaments. 

1912 (Asoc)	Ferro Carril Oeste
1912 (Fed.)	Tigre
1913 (Asoc)	Huracán
1913 (Fed.)	Floresta
1914 (Asoc)	Honor y Patria - not promoted-(*) 
1914 (Fed.)	Defensores de Belgrano

(*) Honor y Patria wasn't promoted due to the Association changed its "promotion rules" and was necessary a match
 between the champions of the second and third Level. Honor y Patria played against San Lorenzo de Almagro, the 
Second Division (Third Level) champions, and lost by 0-3. San Lorenzo was promoted to the First Level. 

In 1915 both associations merged. All the teams from the Federación moved over to the Asociación.

1915	Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata
1916	Sportivo Barracas
1917	Defensores de Belgrano
1918	Eureka

In 1919 a new split happened. A new League was created and named Asociación Amateurs de Football. 
The Asociación Argentina de Football kept their name and was the only recognized by FIFA.

1919 (Asoc.)	Banfield
1919 (Amat)	Barracas Central
1920 (Asoc.)	El Porvenir
1920 (Amat.)	General Mitre
1921 (Asoc.)	Sportivo Dock Sud and Alvear
1921 (Amat.)	Palermo
1922 (Asoc.)	Boca Juniors "B" (second team)
1922 (Amat.)	Argentino del Sud
1923 (Asoc.)	Boca Juniors "B" (second team)
1923 (Amat.)	Liberal Argentino
1924 (Asoc.)	Chacarita Juniors
1924 (Amat.)	Excursionistas
1925 (Asoc.)	Sportivo Balcarce
1925 (Amat.)	Talleres
1926 (Asoc.)	Nacional (Adrogué)
1926 (Amat.)	Honor y Patria 

In 1927 both Leagues merged and the new association was named Asociación Amateurs Argentina de Football.
The Second Level tournament was denominated Primera División B. The Second Level champions in 1926 weren't 
promoted to the First Level due to this merger.

Primera División B champions:

1927	El Porvenir
1928	Colegiales
1929	Honor y Patria
1930	Nueva Chicago

In 1931, 18 clubs left the League and created a new Professional League. The amateur competition continued to 1934,
 when the Asociación Argentina de Football was disbanded and all their teams (except those that left the official competition) 
joined to the Professional League.
The Professional League was named Liga Argentina de Football to 1934 and Asociación del Fútbol Argentino (AFA) 
since that year. There isn't a Professional Second Division until 1934.

The last amateur champions were:

1931	Liberal Argentino
1932	Sportivo Dock Sud
1933	Ramsar Sport Club
1934	Bella Vista

In 1934 a professional Second Level was created. This tournament wasn't promotional to the First Level. 
In this division played the clubs from the former Amateur First Level along with the "second teams" of the First Level teams.

In 1935 the championship of Segunda División was won by Estudiantes de La Plata ("B Team"). 
The following table includes only the matches played by teams from the Second Level.

In 1985 AFA modified the structure of its competitions. Primera B was replaced for a new Second Level division named Primera B Nacional. 
Clubs belonging to Regional Leagues were incorporated with "effective" places (until then they only had competed on First Level National 
Championships, as "invited" teams but they didn't take part on the regular seasons, with a few exceptions (three teams from Córdoba).

The season calendar was changed from the "calendar year" to the "European calendar". 
It starts with the First Level tournament for the 1985/86 season. In between, the Second Level clubs (and the lower levels too) played 
a tournament named "Apertura" to decide the eight teams that would play in the new division, and ten teams to compete in the new Third Level 
named Primera B Metropolitana (only to directly affiliated teams).

At the end of the 1995/96 season, AFA decided to modify the structure of the Second Level. 
The teams were separated in two different groups, named Zona Metropolitana (for directly affiliated teams) 
and Zona Interior (for indirectly affiliated teams). The zones were composed with 16 teams each one.  
Each zone was divided in two sub-zones. The division changes its name from Primera Nacional B to Primera B Nacional.

To complete the 32 teams, AFA held a tournament named Reclasificatorio for the directly affiliated teams, 
and invited teams from several provincial leagues to complete the Zona Interior.

At the same time AFA created a new Third Level tournament for theindirectly affiliated teams. 
It began in the 1995/96 season and was named Torneo Argentino A. 
So, the Third Level was divided in two different tournaments. Primera B Metropolitana (for directly affiliated teams) 
and Torneo Argentino A (for indirectly affiliated teams). 
The indirectly affiliated teams had then a Third Level division with "permanent places" for the first time.

Reclassification tournament (to promote five teams for the B Nacional 1996/97):

First and second stages were played only by Primera B Metropolitana teams. Almirante Brown, Arsenal F.C. and Tigre joined in the Third Stage.
  
First Stage:
Temperley-Sportivo Dock Sud         		1-1/1-0
Deportivo Armenio-Sarmiento	        	0-2/2-1
Defensores de Belgrano-San Miguel		0-0/0-3
Defensores Unidos de Zárate-Talleres		1-0/2-1
El Porvenir-Tristán Suárez			0-1/2-3
Argentino (Ros.)-Dep. Laferrere           	3-0/0-0
Defensa y Justicia-Arg. de Quilmes		1-1/0-0	[pk 5-4]

Second Stage:
Defensores Unidos de Zárate-Almagro		1-2/1-1
Argentino (Rosario)-Temperley         		1-0/0-3
Defensa y Justicia-Sarmiento          		0-0/0-2
Tristán Suárez-San Miguel			1-2/2-2

Third Stage:

Tristán Suárez-Almirante Brown       		0-3/2-1
Arsenal F.C.-San Miguel		       	        0-0/1-0
Sarmiento-Tigre		                   	1-1/3-1
Temperley-Almagro			        0-2/1-6

Almirante Brown and Arsenal F.C. remained in the Second Level.
Tigre was relegated to the Third Level.
Sarmiento, Almagro and Temperley [¿why?] were promoted to the Second Level.

For the indirectly affiliated teams were promoted the following teams:

-Aldosivi (Mar del Plata - Buenos Aires) [defeated Alvarado (Mar del Plata)]

1999/2000 - PRIMERA B NACIONAL

Before the start of the season AFA resolved to eliminate the "two zones" system for the 2001/2002 season. 
Because of this it was necessary to relegate six teams this season and seven in the 2000/2001 season, in order 
to left only 25 teams in the Second Level. In that season another seven teams would be relegated and for the 2002/2003 
season only 20 teams played in the Second Level.

Relegation was decided in this way: The two worst averages in each zone were relegated along with the two worst averages 
from the overall table (the two zones were included). Also, only one team of each third Level division was promoted since this season.
