Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid

The Madrid derby is one of the biggest matches in Europe and is one game that if you have never watched live Spanish football, you should watch.

Real Madrid are of course one the biggest clubs in the world and are packed full of international superstars. The white half of Madrid like to play an attacking style with their fans demanding that they also play with flair whilst the red and white half of the city play a highly structured and often defensive style.

Matches between the 2 Madrid giants are always entertaining affairs as both sets of players know the importance to their fan bases as for Atleti this is their biggest rivalry whilst for Real, the match doesn’t quite match the rivalry with Barcelona but as both teams are now battling it out for tittles and trophies, the rivalry is growing and that means the atmosphere in the ground will be electric.

Rivalry

The El Derbi Madrilena or simply the El Derbi, is one of the biggest football matches not just in domestic Spanish football but in European football as it not only just pits the 2 biggest clubs from the Spanish capital city against each other but it is also a battle between two of the biggest clubs in Europe battling it out over civic pride.

The 2 clubs have a long history full of off of the field issues as well as on the field issues and it is those sorts of derbies that constantly prove to be the fiercest and the most heated and that is certainty something that can be said about the Madrid Derby.

The rivalry between the 2 started up almost from the off as some members of Madrid FC (the Real Madrid), left the club to join Atletico and during the early reign of dictator Franco, Atletico was in his favour before Madrid became dominant in Europe and he switched allegiance.

There is also a perceived difference in fanbases as Real Madrid are though to be the club of the Madrid middle and upper class whilst Atleti are the capital club for the working class.

As with most things these may have set up the rivalry but in the modern era it is the battle over bragging rights in the city and the fact that these 2 clubs go into ever season amongst the favourites for titles and trophies in Spain and it is often the outcome of these matches that go a long way to determine if a club has a successful season or not.

When you mix in the incredible quality on show, the huge and passionate crowds, and the importance of the matches in footballing terms and you have a match that is a must watch for Spanish football fans and for football fans in general, but despite all of that, it can be difficult to watch these big derby matches live on British television.

History

The first ever home match in the Madrid derby to be hosted by Real came in the 1928-29 and it was the very first match between the 2 arch-rivals in a game that Real would come away with the win by 2 goals to 1.

Although there was a break in matches during 1930-34, due to Atletico been relegated, and between 1936-39, due to the Spanish Civil War, Real would go on a great run of home matches which only ended in the 1940-41 season when Atletico picked up their first ever win at the Bernabeu by 1 goal to 3.

The first ever draw between the 2 sides in a match hosted by Real came in the 1947-48 season when the sides battled to a 1-1 draw at the Bernabeu.

Los Blanco’s next run of home wins came between 1952-1955, when they won 4 straight home matches, but it would take until the 1990’s for them to match that run.

The new millennium started with the white side of the city dominating things after Atletico would start the first 2 seasons of the 2000’s in the 2nd tier.

Upon their return, Real would stay undefeated until the 2013-14 season in a run that would see just 5 draws but 4 of them coming in matches hosted by Real.

Real did finish that run with 4 straight home wins but the run also came crashing to an end with Atletico picking up a shock 0-1 win in the 2013-14 season.

That would start a run of 4 straight losses for the whites at home but they would then go on a run of almost a decade of been undefeated at home.
