América de Cali SA, best known as América de Cali or América, is a Colombian professional football club based in Cali, Colombia, competing in the Categoría Primera A (2023), the top division of the Colombian Professional Football League. This unofficial América de Cali flag (Spanish: bandera no oficial de América de Cali) consists of the team's official logo and a red background derived from the team jersey. In the logo, there is a depiction of a devil-like football player playing a ball under the team name on a white shield with a red border. This depiction first appeared on the coat of arms in 1940, due to the widespread belief that players "play like the devil" on the field. Although it was abandoned for a period of time, it is still included in the logo today.
