35th anniversary of the 16th Spanish Cup

2 day(s)

On 30 June 1989, Real Madrid's football team got their hands on a 16th Copa de España. Their opposition in the final were Valladolid, with the showpiece taking place at the Vicente Calderón. A Gordillo strike in the opening five minutes was enough to hand Leo Beenhakker's boys the trophy.

On their way to the title, Real Madrid knocked out Elche in the Round of 32, Sporting de Gijón in the Round of 16 and Celta in the quarter-finals. The semi-final was a derby with Atlético, with our team coming through after a 0-2 win in the first leg and a 1-0 victory in the second. The win over Valladolid closed out a fine campaign which also saw the madridistas clinch LaLiga and the Spanish Super Cup.

Joselu: “Thank you Real Madrid for everything you have helped me to feel throughout my life”

Thank you:

This is the best and most appropriate word to describe everything I feel at this moment, a time when emotion and nerves scarcely allow me to write.

Thank you Real Madrid for everything you have helped me to feel throughout my life. Outside and inside. Inside and outside.

Thank you for all you taught me when I was a kid; thank you for providing me with so many examples of greatness and humility at the same time.

Thank you for having kept my dream alive and for having made it come true.

Thank you Presi, you are truly great.

Thank you so much José Ángel.

Thank you to each and every one of the employees of the greatest and most inspiring club. 

Thank you coach for how you understand this game.

Thank you team for being my family.

Thank you fans for your passion, your warmth and your support that allowed us to fly.

I went away years ago but I never left. I am also leaving today, but in reality I am staying.

Thank you.
