- This article is about Malmö FF's football section. For other sections of the club, see Malmö FF (disambiguation).
Malmö FF is a Swedish football club located in Malmö. The club, formed 24 February 1910, has won 15 national championship titles, 14 national cup titles, and has played a final in the European Champions Cup in football.
With IFK Göteborg and AIK, Malmö FF are often considered to make-up the classic "Big Three" in Swedish club football, with 42 championship titles between them. Malmö FF is also the only Swedish team to have played a final in the European Champions Cup. It happened in 1979, when they lost 0-1 against Nottingham Forest with half the ordinary team injured. They are currently playing in the highest Swedish league, Allsvenskan, where they have played the majority of the seasons during their existence.
Malmö FF was relegated from Allsvenskan in 1999, this was the first time in 63 seasons for the club and the second time ever. However, the following year, 2000, Malmö FF regained their place in Allsvenskan. The first degradation was decided by the Swedish Football Association since Malmö FF's nemesis IFK Malmö had reported the club for paying their players (this was against rules at the time). A lot of Malmö FF fans, specially among the older ones, still think of IFK Malmö's way of acting as an act of treason.
