==History== ===First years=== Llaneros F.C. was founded on 20 April 2012, after the then Governor of [[Meta Department]] [[Alan Jara]] and Mayor of Villavicencio Juan Guillermo Zuluaga with the backing of oil company [[Frontera Energy|Pacific Rubiales Energy]] bought the participation rights (''ficha'') of Categoría Primera B club [[Academia F.C.|Academia]], based in [[Bogotá]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Llaneros FC el nuevo equipo del Meta en el fútbol colombiano |trans-title=Llaneros FC, Meta's new team in Colombian football |url=https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-11452321 |publisher=El Tiempo |access-date=19 August 2021 |language=es |date=28 March 2012 |archive-date=24 April 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210424053112/https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-11452321 |url-status=live }}</ref> The General Assembly of Academia approved the sale of the club on 22 March 2012, with [[División Mayor del Fútbol Colombiano|DIMAYOR]] giving its approval on 27 March 2012 and announcing that Llaneros would enter the competition for the second half of the [[2012 Categoría Primera B season|2012 season]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Comunicado de la Asamblea General de Academia F.C. |trans-title=Statement from the General Assembly of Academia F.C. |url=http://www.cdacademiafc.com/paginas/principal/noticias2012/comunicado-asamblea-general.htm |publisher=Academia F.C. - Departamento de Prensa y Comunicaciones |date=22 March 2012 |access-date=19 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131102235812/http://www.cdacademiafc.com/paginas/principal/noticias2012/comunicado-asamblea-general.htm |archive-date=2 November 2013 |url-status=usurped |language=es}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Academia jugará en Villavicencio y se llamará Llaneros Fútbol Club |trans-title=Academia will play in Villavicencio and will be named Llaneros Fútbol Club |url=http://www.eltiempo.com/deportes/futbol-colombiano/ARTICULO-WEB-NEW_NOTA_INTERIOR-11443643.html |publisher=El Tiempo |date=27 March 2012 |access-date=19 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131103074307/http://www.eltiempo.com/deportes/futbol-colombiano/ARTICULO-WEB-NEW_NOTA_INTERIOR-11443643.html |archive-date=3 November 2013 |url-status=dead |language=es}}</ref> The club played its first game on 22 July 2012, losing to [[Alianza Petrolera F.C.|Alianza Petrolera]] by a 1–0 score at Academia's former home stadium [[Estadio Compensar]] in Bogotá.<ref>{{cite web |title=Llaneros perdió en su debut, cayó 0-1 con Alianza Petrolera |trans-title=Llaneros lost in their debut, they went 1–0 down against Alianza Petrolera |url=https://www.futbolred.com/archivo/documento/CMS-12056162 |publisher=Futbolred |access-date=19 August 2021 |language=es |date=22 July 2012 |archive-date=20 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210820042717/https://www.futbolred.com/archivo/documento/CMS-12056162 |url-status=live }}</ref>
By 2015, the club went through an economic crisis accentuated by the problems of its main sponsor Pacific Rubiales, which led the owners to consider offers to sell and move the club to another area of the country.<ref>{{cite web |title=Llaneros FC podría irse de Villavicencio en el 2016 |trans-title=Llaneros FC might leave Villavicencio in 2016 |url=https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-16257575 |publisher=El Tiempo |access-date=19 August 2021 |language=es |date=19 August 2015 |archive-date=20 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210820042715/https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-16257575 |url-status=live }}</ref> However, at the start of 2016 Llaneros signed an alliance with [[Categoría Primera A]] club [[Independiente Santa Fe|Santa Fe]], in which Santa Fe sent several of its young players to Llaneros on loan as well as a coaching staff led by [[Germán González García|Germán González]], while being responsible for the payment of their wages.<ref>{{cite web |title=Llaneros, la sucursal de Santa Fe en la B |trans-title=Llaneros, Santa Fe's branch in the second tier |url=https://www.elespectador.com/deportes/futbol-colombiano/santa-fe/llaneros-la-sucursal-de-santa-fe-en-la-b-article-613183/ |publisher=El Espectador |access-date=19 August 2021 |language=es |date=27 January 2016 |archive-date=20 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210820042717/https://www.elespectador.com/deportes/futbol-colombiano/santa-fe/llaneros-la-sucursal-de-santa-fe-en-la-b-article-613183/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
Llaneros' best performance in Primera B until then came in the [[2017 Categoría Primera B season|2017 season]], in which the team managed by [[Jairo Patiño]] reached the finals of the ''Torneo Finalización'' but were beaten by [[Leones F.C.

===2021 controversy=== On 4 December 2021, the last matchday of the semi-final Group B of the second tournament of the [[2021 Categoría Primera B season|2021 Primera B season]], Llaneros were beaten by [[Unión Magdalena]] by a 2–1 score with a couple of goals in quick succession in stoppage time. This result helped Unión Magdalena earn promotion to [[Categoría Primera A]] at the expense of [[Fortaleza C.E.I.F.|Fortaleza]], who were clinching promotion despite losing their final match to [[Bogotá F.C.|Bogotá]] at the same time since Llaneros were leading against Unión Magdalena. However, video footage of Unión Magdalena's winning goal appeared to show the Llaneros players backing off and failing to make an effort to prevent their rivals from scoring.<ref>{{cite web |title=Anger in Colombia after suspicious goal decides promotion |url=https://sportstar.thehindu.com/football/anger-in-colombia-suspicious-goal-union-magdalena-llaneros-juan-cuadrado/article37849023.ece |publisher=Sportstar |access-date=9 December 2021 |date=5 December 2021 |archive-date=9 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211209170708/https://sportstar.thehindu.com/football/anger-in-colombia-suspicious-goal-union-magdalena-llaneros-juan-cuadrado/article37849023.ece |url-status=live }}</ref> The events sparked outrage both within the country and abroad, with [[Colombia national football team|Colombian]] internationals [[Juan Cuadrado]] and [[Mateus Uribe]] expressing their displeasure, calling them "a lack of respect" and "an embarrassment for Colombian football", whilst President of Colombia [[Iván Duque Márquez]] stated it was a "national disgrace".<ref>{{cite web |title=Juan Cuadrado slams suspicious goal that decided promotion in Colombia |url=https://www.espn.com/soccer/colombian-primera-b/story/4539782/juan-cuadrado-slams-suspicious-goal-that-decided-promotion-in-colombia |publisher=ESPN |access-date=9 December 2021 |date=4 December 2021 |archive-date=9 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211209170708/https://www.espn.com/soccer/colombian-primera-b/story/4539782/juan-cuadrado-slams-suspicious-goal-that-decided-promotion-in-colombia |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Escándalo en FPC es noticia mundial: así hablan del ascenso de Unión |trans-title=Scandal at the ''FPC'' is world news: this is how they talk about Unión's promotion |url=https://www.futbolred.com/futbol-colombiano/torneo-betplay/escandalo-en-fpc-es-noticia-mundial-hablan-de-ascenso-de-union-magdalena-149335 |publisher=Futbolred |language=es |access-date=9 December 2021 |date=5 December 2021 |archive-date=9 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211209170723/https://www.futbolred.com/futbol-colombiano/torneo-betplay/escandalo-en-fpc-es-noticia-mundial-hablan-de-ascenso-de-union-magdalena-149335 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=How a suspicious soccer goal turned into a matter of state in Colombia |url=https://english.elpais.com/usa/2021-12-08/how-a-suspicious-soccer-goal-turned-into-a-matter-of-state-in-colombia.html |publisher=El País |access-date=9 December 2021 |date=8 December 2021 |archive-date=8 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211208150544/https://english.elpais.com/usa/2021-12-08/how-a-suspicious-soccer-goal-turned-into-a-matter-of-state-in-colombia.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Consolidation and promotion=== In spite of the incident in the 2021 Primera B semi-finals, Llaneros kept consistent performances in subsequent seasons.
