Important off the pitch events in Real Madrid history between 1936 and 1963
The new Chamartín stadium
December 14th, 1947 is a significant date in FC Real Madrid history, since that day the new Chamartín Stadium was founded. The opening of the stadium represented an important sports event at that time and the international press described the stadium as the best in Europe.
Sabino Barinaga was the first player to score in the new stadium. The debut game was against Os Belenenses and ended with the triumph of the locals by 3-1.
Santiago Bernabéu, president
Santiago Bernabéu was born on June 8th, 1895 and died on June 2nd, 1978. Besides being a football player and president of Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, he is the longest-running president of the Club, reaching a 35-years period.
During Bernabéu’s presidency, Real Madrid won 16 Spanish Leagues, 6 Spanish Cups and 6 European Cups. These national and international achievements established Real Madrid as one of the most important football clubs worldwide.
Honoring his effort, dedication and years of hard work in the club, the stadium received the name of this man who gave so much to the institution and the people of Madrid. By doing this, Santiago Bernabeu’s name will always be remembered.
50th Anniversary
On March 6th, 1952, the club celebrated its 50 years anniversary and commemorated the it with several social events and an international sports event.
The sports event was an international tournament with different teams. The winning team was the Millonarios, a team from Argentina that had one player who then became one of the greatest players and scorers in the history of Real Madrid - Alfredo di Stefano.
The performance and skills of Alfredo di Stéfano surprised fans of Real Madrid, and managers quickly started negotiations so that this excellent Argentinean player could be part of the club. A year after the historic game during the 50th anniversary, di Stéfano became part of the team, and would later become a huge football legend, considered one of the best football players in the world during the 20th century. Today, he is the honorary president of Real Madrid.
Robihno’s professional career began early in 2002 when he played for three consecutive years for the Brazilian team Santos totalling 44 goals in the 104 game participations. As of 2005 Robihno was transferred to the Real Madrid where he became an important part of the team’s success especially during the 2007-08 Liga Season when Real Madrid won the championship.
In order for the footballer to be able to be part of Chelsea’s roster he will need to come to an agreement in terms of money with the Real Madrid as his contract is valid until 2010; the amount in question could be around 150m Euros or 119m British Pounds. It is well known the Brazilian has repeatedly stated his wish to play in England and leave the spanish club as soon as possible.
On the other hand, the Liga club has announced that "the Real Madrid would never want to retain a player against his wishes and as a result they have no alternative but to accept his unilateral decision to rescind his contract - if that is what the player wants."
Two of the major reasons for Robihno’s discomfort and deep wish to leave the Real Madrid are the facts that he recently became aware the club was negotiating his sell to another club in order to gather all the required funds to buy Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract before the starting of the season and that he could not participate as part of his Brazilian National Squad neither help them as his request to participate in the Olympic Games was refused.
Chelsea’s coach Luiz Felipe Scolari was the first to contact Robihno during the first days of the month of August and to his surprise he received very positive feedback from the Brazilian forward and from that point on the transfer saga has become the daily news in the football world. It is very clear Robihno does not want to be part of the Real Madrid anymore and he should be able to freely move to another club where he feels his game and efforts are more appreciated.
There have been reports that Chelsea’s bid could be around 19m to 30m British Pounds to get Real Madrid’s permission release signed. But now another issue has awaken which is to whether the Spaniard club should let go of the player or not, as the player is known for his exception skills and capability on the football field. The acquirement of Robihno would certainly be a gain for Chelsea as he will make an excellent pair with Deco who is already part of the Chelsea’s players list while for the Real Madrid will be an open spot - a very difficult to be replaced within only a few days time.
As all could approaches the classic Spanish, the party that not just gambles in 90 minutes much like the majority, but also is fought throughout all of the season, or in media, like inside the houses of bets. One sees daily more and a lot more pages Webs, sport channels along with magazines speaking of this exciting duel. On Real Madrid and Barcelona, this party is a lot more that, whenever it happens it seemed which the world became paralyzed, all tour with this in mind encounter, is the place it's, in the Camp Nou or inside the Bernabéu, it's definitely usually is full.
If we go a small to the statistics, this equipment has faced 160 times, 80 of her in el Santiago Bernabéu, where the white equipment has won in 50 occasions, tied 14 and lost only 16; whereas the other 80, in the Camp Nou, have gone using a total of 46 victories for that Catalans, 16 ties and 18 defeats. Enough balance no? It's that although last the 4 classic ones took Barcelona to them, Madrid doesn't stop his fight gain the victory and also this year it features a added factor, Jose Mourinho, technician that has had the opportunity to annul for the maximum Catalan star, Lionel Messi, that has not written down him not even a objective. Like Christian Ronaldo to Barcelona. Everything can occur and also the world-wide atmosphere is getting ready to obtain this longed for game.
Within the past seasons there is an overall total dominion of Barcelona on Real Madrid that relating to last Barca been have dominated to all the encounter Madrid has totally not had the oppertunity to protect itself with the constant attacks on the Barcelona that is far better that R. Madrid, Madrid has undergone a lot while using constant change of trainers that is bad to get a as wonderful organization as it's it Real Madrid within the last years has received a big change of 9 trainers.
Happening of Vicente del Bosque whereupon that have obtained numerous titles that were on the verge of finding a triplet but the period lost the glass of the King with all the club that in those years was feared and respected.The last trainers of Real Madrid are: Carlos Queiroz, Jose Antonio Camacho, Mariano Garcia Remón, Vanderlei Luxembourg, Juan Ramon Lopez Caro, Fabio Capello, Bern Schuster, Juan de Ramos and at last we have to Manuel Pellegrini.
Nonetheless Barcelona just has had two trainers that are Frank Rijkaard, Josep Guardiola. It's performed to Barcelona additional difficult the 1 than real Madrid and it is its stability as significantly in trainers like players still a lot more who the quarry of Barcelona is giving to quite talented players that to helped to Barcelona due to the fact they are players in the house and they know really well his system game, separate the presidents of Barcelona an fond of all the confidence to the trainers however Real Madrid to does not let act by a unique account on the trainers.
