The origins of these heated rivalries date back to the 1930s, when Real Madrid as the royal football squad of the Spanish government, faced dissent from its former fans in light of the political strife in the area. Their rivals gained popularity basically overnight, as Real Madrid was seen as an avatar of the oppressive state government. However their unyielding skill saw Real Madrid a winning team, even after their government turned on them, with supporters on all sides suffering in the name of the game they loved.

The Rise of Real Madrid

Together, these former football all-stars will keep the most high profile team in the world of football running like the well-oiled machine that it is, and there is no doubt in fans minds that they have what it takes to keep Real Madrid at the top. Getting there in the first place, however, was no easy task.

Last year's Champions league saw Real Madrid drafted into the dreaded "group of death" along with Dortmand, Man City and Ajax -stiff competition; even for the seasoned players of Real Madrid. Finishing second isn't something the royal football club of Spain is used to, even after 112 years of playing. After losing to rival Barcelona in last year's La Liga tournament, tensions are higher than usual for the teams star players.
