Posted by admin | Uncategorized | Sunday 20 November 2011 12:00 am

The Copa Del Rey Trophy is awarded to the Spanish team that wins the annual football or soccer cup competition. In 2011 the Real Madrid team won the trophy back after 18 years of hard work. Real Madrid has won the Copa Del Rey Trophy 18 times since the competition was begun in 1902. Madrid beat Barcelona in overtime, giving the club it’s first domestic win since 1993, and it’s first trophy of any kind in 3 years. The celebration was on. Amid the screaming and cheering of the many fans, Madrid defender Sergio Ramos was on the top of the team bus celebrating with the fans at the Plaza de Cibeles, the team’s traditional celebration spot, when he dropped the trophy under the front wheel of the bus and it was run over before the bus could be stopped. The 60,000 fans were stunned. 10 pieces were recovered from under the bus and the team says it will be repaired. The team was given a copy of the trophy to be displayed until the trophy can be repaired. On twitter, Ramos didn’t seem upset by the incident and even laughed, saying not to worry that the trophy would be repaired.
