Real Madrid :)

Founded in 1897 Real Madrid is one of the most successful European football (soccer) teams. With 31 la liga titles and 17 copa Del ray titles, as well as 9 European cups to their name. In 1897 Real Madrid started out as a sports group called Club Sky; it was the direct precedent of what is Madrid football club today.  And by March 6th 1907 Juan Padros was elected president of Madrid football, this was only the beginning to Madrid.

By May of 1907 the roster was full and the team had been training for two months, preparing themselves for there first big game against Barcelona ( which to this day is there biggest rival) The first Madrid-Barcelona  was in, the semifinals of the 1st Spanish Championship. This was the first clash between the two teams. Sadly Barcelona won 3-1 thanks to the six foreigners they had lined up.  The team took many beatings before finally creating their’ glory. And in 1905 they won their first championship title, the copa Del rey. They went on to win that title three more times. From this success more and more great players came to join the team. As time flew by the teams success climbed.

 Real Madrid has had many legends, from the great Ciriaco Suinaga, to David Beckham, and most recently Cristiano Ronaldo. As you can see over the existence of the club, it has seen many championship titles and cups. Not to mention they’re the only team to win the European cup 5 times in a row. There aren’t many teams that can even dream of this clubs success and hopefully this club has more legends to bring. You never know every body has got a shot, so as the years go by, hopefully we will witness another club like Real Madrid rise.
