On 30 June 1989, Real Madrid's football team got their hands on a 16th Copa de España. Their opposition in the final were Valladolid, with the showpiece taking place at the Vicente Calderón. A Gordillo strike in the opening five minutes was enough to hand Leo Beenhakker's boys the trophy.

On their way to the title, Real Madrid knocked out Elche in the Round of 32, Sporting de Gijón in the Round of 16 and Celta in the quarter-finals. The semi-final was a derby with Atlético, with our team coming through after a 0-2 win in the first leg and a 1-0 victory in the second. The win over Valladolid closed out a fine campaign which also saw the madridistas clinch LaLiga and the Spanish Super Cup.
