Real Madrid vs Atltico Madrid\n\n For long periods, this was one of those lopsided city rivalries dominated by Real Madrid, but there are few things Atleti fans enjoy more than getting one over on their illustrious neighbours.
The rivalry first gained international attention in 1959 during the European Cup when the two clubs met in the semi-finals. Real won the first leg 2 1 at the Santiago Bernabu, while Atltico won 1 0 at the Metropolitano.
