Unlike most European sporting entities, Real Madrid’s members have owned and operated the club throughout its history. Real Real has won a total of 66 trophies, including 34 La Liga titles, 19 Copa del Rey, 11 Supercopa de España, a Copa Eva Duarte, and a Copa de la Liga. Real is considered by some in the sport to be the greatest team of all time, with Alfredo Di Stéfano, Ferenc Puskás, Francisco Gento, and Raymond Kopa considered to be among the greatest players of all-time. Real won its first league title in 1931–32, and retained the title the following year following the arrival of the Second Spanish Republic. In 1929, the first Spanish league was founded, and Real Madrid led the first league season until the last match, a loss to Athletic Bilbao, which meant they finished runners-up to Barcelona. After moving to the Campo de O’Donnell in 1912, the name was changed to Real Madrid after King Alfonso XIII granted the club’s title of Real Madrid. The name Real Madrid was granted to the Real Madrid Club de Fútbol on 14 April 1920, after the King of the Spanish Republic, when the club went back to being named Real Football Club.
