At the end of the 19th century, football was growing in a number of cities in Europe. However, unlike the case with Madrid, the city dwellers in Spain did not recognize the game that had originally developed in England. This background made some professors and students at the Libre de Ensenanza Institution establish Club Sky Football in 1897. They held regular exercises every Sunday morning. In its development, the club broke into two in 1900 to become New Football de Madrid and Club Espanol de Madrid.
A few years later, Club Espanol de Madrid broke out again, one of which formed Madrid Football Club on March 6, 1902, which later became known as Real Madrid. One of the people who contributed to the formation of the first team in Madrid was Julian Palacios. Through his thoughts, Palacios finally managed to determine and form the first team of Madrid.
Palacios's policy was then continued by Juan Padros who took over Madrid until it began to develop. Reporting from realmadrid.com, the enthusiasm of the great Madrid residents towards football made Madrid Football Club submit a petition to hold a tournament. They submitted a proposal to the highest authority of Madrid and then submitted to King Alfonso XIII. The proposal was given a green light by the King and later developed into the Copa del Rey.
First appearance
Five clubs registered in the competition and Madrid appeared dominant at that time with its distinctive blue-white uniform. A field adjacent to the old bullring in Madrid. This became the first match for the club.
Reporting from History.com, from 1905 to 1907, under their first coach from England, Arthur Johnson, Madrid won the victory. Johnson managed to trigger the Madrid players to be able to win every match and win three titles in a row.
The development experienced by Madrid made Juan Padros then organize an international match. Madrid bears all costs to bring in the Gallia Sport team from Paris.The match was an international match experienced by Madrid in the history of its football.
Rename, move the stadium
When the enthusiasm of the audience gets higher to see the match, the field must be replaced with more capacity. Of course, expansion is also to provide income funds to the club.
Finally O'Donnell Stadium was built which made Madrid's reputation even bigger. In fact, the Spanish kingdom gave the title "Real" to the club in 1920.
Because Real Madrid's reputation continues to increase and even holds international matches often, the O´Donnell Stadium feels smaller and narrower to accommodate the number of spectators.
The club made the first move to the Ciudad Lineal stadium and then to the new stadium in Chamartin. At that time, 15,000 spectators could watch the match held at the stadium.
Legend status
Real Madrid won the status of a legendary club under the leadership of Santiago Bernabeu Yeste, who played for the team from 1912 to 1927.
He also served as club president from 1943 to 1978. He also built Chamartin and the Ciudad Deportiva which were damaged by civil war.
In 1953, the Bernabeu began filling out the list of players with the best players from various countries in the world. One of them is Alfredo di Stefano, an Argentine-born star who later became a star in Spain. This makes Real Madrid the first multinational club in the world.
On January 4, 1955, a session of the club council decided that the Chamartin field was called the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium because of the services of the club president.
Madrid's popularity and victory increased and won several prestigious trophies from the Copa Del Rey, La Liga, to the European Champions League.
In 2000, FIFA chose Real Madrid as the 20th century's best football team. Not only that, Real Madrid even scored the most club records which won the European Champions League to 13 titles. Three of the 13 titles were won in a row, namely in the 2015-2016 season, 2016-2017, 2017-2018.
