Sevilla FC (1913–1918)

Campo del Mercantil was the home stadium of Sevilla FC for 5 years between 1913 and 1918. It is the successor of Campo del Prado de San Sebastián.[1] It was replaced by Campo de la Reina Victoria in 1918.

It was the host in a historical match, on 18 March 1917, when Sevilla FC beat with 2-1 Madrid CF for the first time in 1917 Copa del Rey.[2] Sevilla did not qualify for the semi-finals after they lost the second leg of the match 4-0.
