Summary edit

The club clinched its 17th league title, finishing five points above runners-up CF Barcelona. Despite Cruijff, Neeskens and Co. having a better offensive line, Real Madrid managed to counterweight that with a brilliant defensive line that ultimately won them the trophy. During the summer, a back up line reinforcement Juan Sol arrived from Valencia.[1] being crucial for the team during the campaign.[2]

In the European Cup, the squad reached the semi-finals, losing the tie against back-to-back Champions Bayern Munich.[3] The club was eliminated early in the Copa del Generalísimo round of 16 by underdogs CD Tenerife, despite playing the decisive match at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.[4]
