Tout Puissant Mazembe is a professional football club based in Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, founded in 1939 and one of the most successful clubs in African football history, having won multiple CAF Champions League continental titles and numerous Congolese national championships. The club drew international attention in 2010 when it became the first sub-Saharan African club to reach the final of the FIFA Club World Cup, losing narrowly to Inter Milan, and its name, meaning "The All-Powerful Mazembe" in Swahili, reflects the club's historic dominance of Congolese and Central African football since the mid-20th century.
