In addition to the League tournaments, there are two more serious football competitions in Spain: the Spanish King's Cup (Copa Del Rey) and the Spanish Super Cup. Copa del Rey, the second most important tournament after the Spanish League Cup, is the oldest Spanish football tournament - held every year from 1903. The tournament is held in the form of "knockouts" with the winning team, if it has not qualified for the Champions League, gets an entry ticket to the Europa League. The team that won the King's Cup the greatest number of times is Barcelona, which also holds it this year (2017), with 29 wins, including three consecutive ones (2015-2017). |
