welcome to my blog!!!




this is the first time i do this, so i have no idea what i'm doing. so it says realmad4ever, thats because REALMADRID is the best team of the century. they're the best thing that ever happened to football and i don't care if you don't think so. Real Madrid Club de Fútbol (also known as Real Madrid, Los Blancos, Los Merengues or in English Royal Madrid Football Club) is a professional Spanish football club based in Madrid. Founded in 1902, it plays in La Liga and is one of the most successful football clubs of the 20th century, having won thirty La Liga titles, seventeen Copa del Rey and was European Champions for a record nine times. The team is also a member of the G-14 group of leading European football clubs.
It plays its home games at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid. Real Madrid is unusual in that, unlike most football clubs, it has been owned and operated only by its members (socios) since 1902. On December 23, 2000, FIFA awarded the Spanish team the title of the "Best Club of the 20th Century". Los Blancos is the most successful club in UEFA club football competitions history with nine European Cups and two UEFA Cups; more than any other European club. The only European trophy it hasn't won is the European Cup Winners Cup, in which it played two finals, losing both by 2 goals to 1, first to Chelsea 2-1 in 1971, after an initial 1-1 draw in the first leg, the team lost 1-0 in the return leg and Aberdeen 2-1 in 1983.
With over 228 million supporters worldwide, Real Madrid is the biggest football club in the world according to the case studies at Harvard University in 2006, followed by Manchester United with 168 million.
