Real Madrid won their first Spanish league title in 1932, three seasons after the Spanish league was founded. They won the league the following year, 1933, but it took 21 years to win their next title.

During the 1950s and 1960s, Los Blancos won the league 12 times, thanks largely to club greats Alfredo Di Stéfano and Ferenc Puskás. Before the 1950s, Spanish league teams were only allowed three foreign players in their squads. Real Madrid took advantage of that after the rule change, and the titles kept coming.

Real Madrid continued to dominate until the 1990s and 2000s when Barcelona broke the flow of league titles to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Since 1990, the Whites have won 12 La Liga titles, while Barca have won 17. Despite this, Real Madrid still hold the most Spanish league titles with 36, with Barcelona second with 27 and Atletico Madrid third with 11.

The first Copa del Rey final took place in 1903, after Bilbao football club president Juan de Astorquia and Carlos Padros, later president of Real Madrid, proposed a football tournament to celebrate the coronation of Spanish King Alfonso XIII.

Real Madrid won their first Copa del Rey in the 1904/95 season, and won three more after 1905. They then had a long hiatus from lifting the trophy again in 1917 until nearly 20 years later in 1934.

Los Blancos enjoyed their greatest success in the 1970s and 1980s, winning the trophy six times in 20 years. After winning the 1993 final against Zaragoza, Real Madrid did not win the Copa del Rey again until 2011, then twice since in 2014 and 2023.

Real Madrid have won the third most Copa del Rey titles (20), followed by Barcelona (31) and Athletic Club (24), with the latter winning in 2024.
