España F.C. (full name: Atlético España Fútbol Club), and originally known as Club Deportivo 33 (C.D. 33), was a professional association football club located in San Salvador, El Salvador.

During the 1930s, España F.C. competed in the central zone soccer tournament that was held by the Salvadoran Sports Commission as C.D. 33. They won two national tournament finals in 1937 (3–1 vs. C.D. Alacranes) and in 1938 (10–3 vs. C.D. Maya).[1] In 1938, C.D. 33 won the central zone in El Salvador. Since there was no official national tournament held that year, this central region zone title is considered a national title. On 30 August 1940, C.D. 33 renamed and rebranded themselves as Atlético España F.C.

In 1940, España F.C. won the central zone tournament.[1] Since there was no official national football tournament in El Salvador that year, this championship is considered as the national title. The club dissolved in the late-1940s.

España F.C. played their home matches at the Estadio Nacional Flor Blanca
