On 27 April 1975, which was 47 years ago today, Real Madrid were crowned LaLiga champions for the 16th time in the club's history. The point recorded at Atocha against Real Sociedad, secured courtesy of Pirri's 89th-minute equaliser, was enough to hand our team the title.

In that campaign, Miljan Miljanic's Real Madrid amassed 50 points and finished ahead of Zaragoza 38 and Barcelona 37. The madridistas, who wrapped the title up with five rounds of games to go, ended the season unbeaten at the Bernabéu. The Whites were also the league's top-scoring side on 66 goals and Santillana topped the side's scoring charts with 17 goals to his name.
