La Liga history
La Liga was started in 1929 initially with 10 teams competing. Among those teams that are still in La Liga today include Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Real Sociedad, Athletic Club, and Espanyol. Barcelona won the inaugural La Liga title in 1929. Real Madrid won their first title in 1932. It was Athletic Club that dominated the first few years of La Liga, winning it in 1930, 1931, 1934, and 1936.
La Liga was suspended during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and when it resumed afterwards, new teams had emerged as strong contenders. In the 1940s, competition was mainly between Valencia (winners 1942, 1944, 1947), Atletico Madrid (1940, 1941), and Barcelona (1945, 1948, 1949).
The 1950s heralded the emergence of Barcelona and Real Madrid as the most dominant team in La Liga. Atletico Madrid won the title in 1950 and 1951 before Barcelona took over in 1952 and 1953. This squad is considered Barcelona’s first golden era as they also won back-to-back Copa Del Rey titles to go with the league title. They also won the league in 1959 and 1960.
In the 1950s Real Madrid naturalized Alfredo Di Stéfano and Ferenc Puskás to be eligible to play for them. Together with Raymond Kopa and Francisco Gento, they formed the core of the Real Madrid team that won La Liga in 1954, 1955, 1957, and 1958. Real Madrid continued their dominance through the 1960s and 1970s, winning 14 titles in a 20 year period, including 5 titles in a row from 1961 to 1965.
