The two clubs met inLisbonfor the2014 UEFA Champions League final,making it the first time two clubs from the same city played in the final.[1]After facing off a second time in the2016 UEFA Champions League finalinMilan,with Real Madrid winning as they had two years earlier, they also met in the2018 UEFA Super Cup,again the first time two clubs from the same city met in that event; it was won by Atlético.
History
edit
The rivalry between the two clubs started at the very beginning of the twentieth century.Madrid Foot-Ball Club(founded 1902), the most powerful club in the Spanish capital, kept on making mergers and acquisitions of the best smaller clubs in the city, which subsequently disappeared. At the same time, Madrid FC also signed the best players from the clubs it did not absorb, which also made those clubs defunct when they were unable to compete against theWhites.The main exception to this pattern wasAthletic Club Madrid(founded 1903), who were able to keep most of their best players thanks to the financial aid of their "parent",Athletic Club Bilbao,and so became the last stand against the Madrid FC supremacy in the capital. Many supporters of the clubs that had vanished due to theReal(a recognition given by the King of Spain to his favoured clubs, bestowed upon Madrid FC in 1920, rescinded by theSecond Spanish Republicin 1931 and then restored by GeneralFrancisco Francoin 1940) therefore became supporters of theRed-and-whites,many harbouring dislike towards the "royal" club and triggering the rivalry.[2]However, in terms of competitive honours won, Real Madrid were far above Athletic Madrid (who remained so named even after their separation from the original Basque club) until after theSpanish Civil War.
After the war, during the earlyFrancoist period,Atlético became associated with themilitary air force(and thus renamed Atlético Aviación), although the alleged preference of the regime for the club is subject to discussion, as after winning their very first league title in1940,Atlético's coach Ricardo Zamora was jailed on charges of being a communist. In any case, during this period Atlético became the most successful club in Spain, reducing the historical gap between the two clubs, until the regime preference shifted towards Real Madrid in the 1950s, as Franco sought to make political capital out of Real Madrid's multipleEuropean Cuptitles at a time when Spain was internationally isolated; one minister said, "Real Madrid are the best ambassadors we've ever had."[3]Thus, Atlético fans regularly chanted that Real were"El equipo del gobierno, la vergüenza del país"– "The team of the government, the shame of the country" – and allegedly adopted a moreleft-wing slant(tempered by the rise ofultrasculture, andRayo Vallecano's presence as the "true" leftist club in Madrid).[4][5]
The rivalry first gained international attention in 1959 during theEuropean Cupwhen the two clubs met in the semi-finals. Real won the first leg 2–1 at theSantiago Bernabéu,while Atlético won 1–0 at theMetropolitano.The tie went to a replay, which Real won 2–1. Atlético, however, gained some revenge when, led by former Real Madrid coachJosé Villalonga,it defeated its city rivals in two successiveCopa del Generalísimofinals in1960and1961.[6]In the 1970s, Atlético took again the lead as the most successful Spanish club of the decade, which prompted the Real Madrid fanbase to look down on Atlético calling them and their supporters "Indios" (Indians,a reference to theLatin Americanplayers signed by theRed-and-whites).[7]It is worth noting that by then, Real Madrid was not very keen on signing non-Caucasianplayers (presidentSantiago Bernabéueven stated, when he decided not to sign Portuguese starEusebioat the end of the 1960s,"Mientras yo viva, aquí no jugará ningún negro ni un blanco con bigote"( "As long as I live, no black or white with a mustache will play here" ).[8]Atlético's supporters accepted the new "Indian" nickname joyfully and have been using it until today.
The Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid's stadium named after its former president, is alongside banks and businesses on theupper classPaseo de la Castellanastreet, while theVicente Calderón(the stadium that Atlético Madrid used until the2016–17 season) could be found near a brewery, alongside theManzanares Riverand a motorway. Real draw greater support all across the region because of their historically greater resources and success, while Atlético have a relativelyworking classfan base mainly from the south of the city, with some fans also scattered throughout the city.[9][10]In fact, the Atlético crest includes theCoat of arms of Madrid,whereas Real crest has no such a reference to the city (instead, it includes a reference to the broaderCastile region).
Between 1961 and 1989, when Real dominated La Liga, only Atlético offered it any serious challenge, winning league titles in 1966, 1970, 1973 and 1977. In 1965, Atlético became the first team to beat Real at the Bernabéu in eight years. In the modern era, the Madrid derby is the second biggestderby in Spanish football,behindEl Clásico,and although Real Madrid have the larger worldwide fanbase, Atlético Madrid have also amassed a significant worldwide fanbase, due to their level of success in theChampions LeagueandEuropa Leaguein the early 21st century. Real Madrid is the most successful club in the Champions League, having won it 15 times. Atlético have never won the Champions League, though they have reached the final on three occasions (losing narrowly to Real Madrid in two of those), and they have also won the Europa League three times since 2010 (compared to two UEFA Cups for Real Madrid in the 1980s) and theUEFA Super Cupthree times (one of them against Real Madrid).
On 27 July 2019, Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid faced off in an off-seasonexhibition matchat the2019 International Champions Cupin theUnited States,marking the first time the two clubs faced off in a Madrid derby held outside their home country. It wound up setting a record for the highest-scoring Madrid derby, and a blowout win for Atlético Madrid, as they routed Real Madrid 7–3; Atlético Madrid led 5–0 at half time, and Real Madrid only began to rally from behind in the second half of the match.[11]
