History
The club was established by entrepreneur César Mansilla, that had previously worked for Mauricio Macri, Chief of Government of Buenos Aires by those times. Mansilla was also a personal friend of Boca Juniors (and then Argentine Football Association –AFA vice-president) Daniel Angelici.[3]
Despite not having football players and manager, Real Pilar affiliated to the AFA to play in Primera D,[4] through an Association's rules exemption that allowed the club to be registered as provisional member.[5] The decision was heavily criticized by some journalists that stated the club had been favoured because of Mansilla's ties with the political power represented by Macri and Angelici.[3] Nevertheless, Mansilla denied that his relation with Macri had favoured Real Pilar to get a place in AFA domestic league.[6] Real Pilar was also the first club which request was accepted by the Association within 40 years (the last clubs to be registered to AFA had been Defensa y Justicia, Argentino de Merlo, Laferrere, San Miguel and Claypole, all in 1977).[5]
Real Pilar's official debut was on September 3, 2017, against Victoriano Arenas. Managed by Roberto Romano, the line-up was: Juan Pablo Ghiglione; Axel Bordón, Diego Carabajal, Gonzalo Pulido, Damián Achucarro; Miguel Almada, Rodrigo Díaz, Rodrigo Santillán, Alejandro Acuña; Carlos Perrone, Alejo Binaghi. The squad lost to Victoriano Arenas 3–1.[7] In October 2017, the Association Assembly ratified Real Pilar's affiliation to the body.[8]
