Santiago Bernabeu Stadium
Description:
The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium is the home stadium of Real Madrid Football Club. This club was founded on 06.03.1902. In May of the same year, the club won its first tournament. The name Real Madrid (Royal Club) was given to the team in 1920 as an award from His Majesty Alfonso XIII. The club was previously known as Sociedad Madrid FC. The club became famous for four victories in the tournament "Copa del Rey Alfonso XIII" (Cup of King Alfonso XIII). The president of the promising football club is Santiago Bernabeu, who by 1950 made Real Madrid the benchmark by which all clubs in the world were equal. Nine European Cups, five of which have been won one by one, have brought the club a record that no club in the world can still repeat. In the winter of 2001, the Royal club received an official confirmation from FIFA: Real Madrid was named the best club in the history of football. According to approximate estimates, about 200 million people are sick for the royal club of Spain.
The stadium is named "Santiago Bernabeu" after the president of the Royal Club of 1943-1975. It was Santiago Bernabeu who initiated the construction of a new stadium for his club, which could become the most famous club in the world. On December 14, 1947, Real Madrid played in the new stadium for the first time. This date can be considered the birthday of the most famous club in Europe and the world. It was here that the final match of the 1982 World Cup was played. In 2003, the arena was awarded the highest five-star status, and five years later the stadium received the right to host the final of the Champions League season 2009/2010. For all its existence, the Santiago Bernabeu has been honored three times with the European Cup final (in 1957, 1969 and 1980), as well as the decisive matches of the European Championship (1964) and the World Championship (1982). The stadium houses the Real Madrid Museum, which contains all the awards won by the Royal Club over 100 years of existence.
