WELSH CLUBS IN EUROPE PART FIFTEEN - INTER CARDIFF/INTER CABLE TEL/CARDIFF METROPOLITAN UNIVERSITY


Inter Cardiff FC were formed in 1990 when AFC Cardiff and Sully FC merged. They then changed their name to Inter Cable Tel for sponsorship reasons before reverting back to Inter Cardiff. In 2000 they merged with Cardiff Metropolitan University to form UWIC Inter Cardiff. In 2012 the club became Cardiff Metropolitan University FC. 

The club's most famous game came in July 1997 when they played Celtic at Ninian Park in front of 6,980 people losing 0-3. The return leg at Cletic Park resulted in a 5-0 defeat with 41,537 people watching. 

In the 2019/20 season Cardiff Metropolitan University played their first game in Europe against Progress Niederkorn of Luxembourg. They unfortunately went out on away goals after a 2-2 draw on aggregate.
