Real_Madrid facts
- In 1998, FIFA named Real Madrid "team of the century". They have won
the European Cup so many times (7, the next has 5) that last time (1998)
it meant so little to them that they kept it in a cupboard under the stairs.
- Having said that, it's worth pointing out that almost all this european success
came in one spell in the late 50s, when they won the cup 5 times in succession
thanks to the likes of Puskas and Di Stefano.
Since then they've had to make do with 2 UEFA Cups, 2 European Cups, and
regular success in domestic competitions (a feat which rivals Rangers',
although the Spanish League is much better than the Scottish there's
still really only one serious rival)
