Athletic Real tickets: 2 of the 3 teams which always stayed in the Spanish 1st Division!
The Leones vs. The Merengues – El Viejo Clásico
On the one hand, we have the Athletic Club from Bilbao, past owner of the Copa Del Rey‘s record. On the other hand, we have Real Madrid, current owner of the Liga’s record. Their 1st encounter in the Liga was in 1929 which ended in Real Madrid’s victory. Despite mockeries from the Leones supporters, the Merengues won 1-4 as visitors.
During the Civil War, Athletic Club had difficulties winning any titles. It was because of the Francoist repression. Indeed, Real Madrid, symbol of the Spanish pride, had multiple advertising from the government. However, the Leones regained their power in the 80’s with a brand new team. Actually, they won the Liga 2 times.
Nowadays, the Leones are almost no-match for the Merengues. In terms of finance and players, Real Madrid surely has the upper hand.
However, Athletic Club is still hungry for victory and will not hold back on the current season. Buy or sell your Athletic Real tickets on Fanpass!
Athletic Club in Liga
The Leones were born in 1898 in Bilbao. It is a particular team because it only recruits Basques players. Even though Athletic is a good team, they struggle playing against international clubs. It is the only one with Real Madrid and FC Barcelona which don’t know relegation. Indeed, Athletic is a great club with 8 Liga and 23 Copa Del Rey won in its career. The current trainer is Arritz Solabarrieta who trained the young team of Athletic earlier.
A specificity of Athletic Bilbao is that it was sponsorless from its birth to 2004. Since this day, their sponsor is a petroleum company.
The Athletic Club plays at San Mamés Barria.
Real Madrid in Liga
The main club of the capital city is born in 1902. They are the eternal rival of FC Barcelona and Atlético Madrid. Indeed, we call them El Clásico and the Derbi Madrileño. Actually, the Merengues are one of the best teams alive. With their foreign and powerful players such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Thierry Henry they conquered Football. The 1st one is from Manchester United and the 2nd one from Arsenal. The current coach is Santiago Solari, former player from Atlético Madrid.
Real is the owner of 2 records: 33 Liga won and 13 Champions League. Indeed, it is thanks to their regularity in game and to their great players.
The team currently plays at Santiago Barnabéu Stadium.
