Founded in 1903, Atlético Madrid is one of Spain’s most iconic clubs, known for its fierce fighting spirit and resilience against football’s giants. With 11 La Liga titles, 10 Copa del Rey trophies, and 3 UEFA Europa League victories, Atleti has built a reputation as the ultimate underdog that never backs down. Their ultras, Frente Atlético, are among the most passionate in Europe, turning the Cívitas Metropolitano into a fortress with their relentless chants. One of the most emotional moments in their history came in 2014 when they won La Liga against all odds, breaking the Barcelona-Real Madrid dominance, only to suffer heartbreak days later in the UEFA Champions League final against their eternal rivals, Real Madrid. Despite setbacks, Atlético embodies the spirit of perseverance and determination—"El Atleti nunca se rinde" (Atleti never gives up)—making them not just a club, but a way of life.
