Description:
Pici is (I think) a neighborhood of Fortaleza. Emerged from an earlier club called Stella. Name change from Fortaleza Sporting Club was forced by a presidential decree outlawing foreign names of various organizations. More popular in the Fortaleza suburbs, while Ceará are the big team of the central city.
