It was founded as a sports club of Madrid by Basque students sympathetic to Athletic Bilbao. The team in the Spanish capital will no longer be a subsidiary in 1921, when it dismembered the Basque team. However, the similarity of uniforms, names and badges, arose because of the way the Madrid club was created, remained. His best period came between 1939 and 1975, winning seven of the ten titles in the Spanish league, the 1962 European Cup and finishing second in the UEFA Champions League in 1974. The runner-up in 1974, by the way, brought Atletico a curious position of the first intercontinental cup club, not winning the most important continental interclub trophy: the team defeated the Argentines from Independiente, not winning the UEFA Champions Cup, lost to Bayern Munich. The German club gave the Spanish place. Atletico will again be a Champions League finalist in 2014 and 2016 without winning it. He previously won the UEFA Europa League in 2010 and 2012, a title he will win again in 2018.

MLS as a Sports Product – the Prominence of the World’s Game in the U.S. April 8, 2021 Abstract The purpose of this Working Paper is to analyze how soccer at the professional level in the U.S., with Major League Soccer as a focal point, has developed over the span of a quarter of a century. It is worthwhile to examine the growth of MLS from its first game in 1996 to where the league currently stands as a business as it moves past its 25th anniversary. The 1994 World Cup (held in the U.S.) and the subsequent implementation of MLS as a U.S. professional league exerted a major positive influence on soccer participation and fandom in the U.S. Consequently, more importance was placed on soccer in the country’s culture. The research reported here explores the league’s evolution and development through the cohesion existing between its sporting and business development, as well as its performance.
