The 1927–28 season was Real Madrid Club de Fútbol's 26th season in existence. The club played some friendly matches including their first ever tour of the Americas. They also played in the Campeonato Regional Centro (Central Regional Championship), the Copa del Rey and the Copa Federación Centro (Central Federation Cup).
Real Madrid also played in the Torneo de Campeones, a competition involving the six teams that had previously won the Copa del Rey. The competition was played with a make shift schedule and the teams had been scheduled to play each other in a double round-robin format, however all matches could not be played, and some teams including Real Madrid only played 9 games. The Torneo de Campeones served as a rehearsal for the establishment of La Liga, the first national football league in Spain, the following season.
Summary
[edit]Real Madrid embarked on their first ever tour of the Americas visiting Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, Cuba, Mexico and the United States over a period of three and half months during the season. The tour was organised by José García Echaniz, and Santiago Bernabéu was the club representative.[1] The tour began on 9 July 1927 with a match against Argentine side Combinado Buenos Aires, a team made up of players from clubs based in Buenos Aires. The last match of the tour was played against American side Galicia SC on 24 September 1927 in New York City.[2]
