Mariscal Sucre is a Peruvian football club, located in the city of La Victoria, Lima.
The club was founded with the name of Sucre FC and was promoted to Peruvian Primera División in 1933, later was renamed Mariscal Sucre de Deportes in 1951.[1]
The club won the national tournament in 1944 and 1953.[2][3]
In the 1968 Torneo Descentralizado, Mariscal Sucre was relegated when Centro Iqueño defeated them in a relegation playoff, and it was their last appearance in the Peruvian Primera Division.[4]
After the disappearance of the Peruvian Segunda División in 1973, the club played in the Liga Mayor de Fútbol de Lima in 1974 but did not get promotion to the Peruvian Primera División. The following year, after being relegated again and in search of resources to survive, the club decided to merge with Deportivo Epsep (a team of the Empresa Estatal de Servicios Pesqueros) and move to the Liga Distrital de San Isidro, in which, after being relegated the club did not show up to play in 1977, with which the club was disaffiliated and consummated his disappearance.[5]
In 2023, the club participates in the Liga Distrital de La Victoria.
