The barcelona
football club has already celebrated its 100 anniversary.
It was started in 1899 by a Swiss immigrant called Hans Gamper with
the idea of getting together a group of youths who loved sports, thus
making to two teams to create a little rivalry and emotion in the games.
The first teams were made up of basically all foreigners, interested
in making this fabulous sport and football club in barcelona known
to everyone. The first real match was against local Englishmen and
the barcelona football club won. Following that the football
club ventured out of Barcelona to play against their forever opponent,
Madrid. Then they challenged our neighboring country to the north,
France where they also reaped victory.
As the team grew, its ambitions also did and they turned to foreigners
as a good bet to strengthen their football club in barcelona . Everyone
has heard of Ladislao Kubala, the first foreigner to play for the soccer
team club barcelona . And this investment was possible because the
fc barcelona team was backed by good financial basis, all coming from
local businessmen and their industries.
The barcelona
football club first won the Spanish league in the exciting soccer
season of 1928-1929 and has continued to achieve this longed for
trophy in fifteen other occasions. They have also reached the maximum
European Champions League Cup in 1991-1992 and unlimited other precious
trophies. And to always keep the barcelona soccers club´s spirits
high is their Official Barca hymn.
