ビセンテ・デル・ボスケ
Real Madrid returned to domestic league glory under Vicente del Bosque after a 3–1 victory against Athletic Bilbao in the last game of the season. But Real Madrid surprisingly sacked Vicente del Bosque shortly after winning the La Liga title after del Bosque was not offered his new contract and being replaced by surprise candidate Carlos Queiroz. Real Madrid were also on course to retain their UEFA Champions League "La Decima" title before being eliminated by eventual Italian league champions Juventus. In the domestic cup, Real Madrid were also eliminated by eventual Copa del Rey champions RCD Mallorca with a 1–5 aggregate loss.
