Adelaide United FC is one of the most successful clubs in the Australian A-League. The team is based in Adelaide, South Australia, and is the only representative of this southern state in the Australian top division. The club was founded in 2003, replacing FC Adelaide City in the Australian National Soccer League. The team debuted in the competition during the 2005/2006 season, finishing 7 points ahead of all other representatives of the league. However, its squad failed to perform well during the knock-out stage, so-called Final series, and finished third as a result. During the 2006/2007 and 2008/2009 seasons the club twice reached the grand final, but failed to win it on both occasions.
The 2009/2010 season was really catastrophical for the club, as a run of poor form throughout the season made them finish at the bottom half of the table for the first time in their history. However, the club is still considered as one of the most illustrious sides of the continent. It is the only Australian club, who took part in four AFC Champions League competitions, reaching its group-stage on two occasions. The Adelaide club also holds the A-League biggest win and goals scored in a game records, as it demolished FC North Queensland Fury in a 8-1 win on 21 January 2011 playing home at the Hindmarsh Stadium in front of 10,829 fans.
The club plays its home fixtures at the Hindmarsh Stadium, which can house up to 17,000 viewers. FC Adelaide United kit color is red.
