Club Atlético River Plate is a professional football club in Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol (CONMEBOL) competitions. Since 1914, they have won eighteen AFA-AUF, South American and Worldwide trophies. These consist of the Copa Aldao five times, the Copa Libertadores four times, and the Intercontinental Cup. They have also won the Recopa Sudamericana three times, and once the Tie Cup, the Copa Sudamericana, the Supercopa Libertadores, the Suruga Bank Championship, and the Copa Interamericana.
Prior to the first continental tournament held by CONMEBOL, River Plate was one of many clubs to compete in the competitions ran jointly by Argentine and Uruguayan football associations. They participated seven times in the Copa Aldao, being the most successful team with five titles, and the Tie Cup, which they also won in 1914.
The South American governing body organised its first official tournament in 1960, when they introduced the Copa Libertadores. Since their first participation in 1966, River Plate have competed in at least one continental competition over the course of 47 different seasons. During this time, they achieved 11 international titles and one Worldwide honour.
At international level, Marcelo Gallardo is the club's most successful manager, with seven trophies. Their biggest-margin win is a 9–0 victory over Universitario de La Paz in the 1970 Copa Libertadores. Defender Hernán Díaz holds the club record for the most appearances, with 116, and Daniel Onega is the club's record goalscorer, with 31 goals.
