Grupo Desportivo Interclube, usually known as Interclube or Inter de Luanda, is an Angolan football club based in Luanda. The club is attached to the Angolan police force. Interclube is one of the two clubs based in Luanda (the other one is 1º de Agosto) with a stadium of its own as all the remaining clubs in the capital play their home matches at the state-owned 11 de Novembro and Coqueiros. The stadium, built in 2004, has an 10,000-seat capacity.[2]

Two players from Inter represented the Angola national team in its first FIFA World Cup tournament, in 2006 in Germany: Miloy and Mário.
