1957–58 Real Madrid CF season

The club signed 1955-56 French league champion manager Luis Carniglia as its new head coach.[1]

New arrivals for the team were goalkeeper Rogelio Domínguez, a champion with Argentina at the 1957 Copa América,[2] and from Nacional de Montevideo Uruguayan defender José Emilio Santamaría, who played at the 1954 FIFA World Cup and brought attention due to his style of play.[3] These two signings were crucial to boost the defense of the team with an impressive 26 goals conceded during 30 matches in the Spanish league, helping also the offensive line wherein Alfredo Di Stefano and his 19 goals clinched another league top scorer trophy, this time tied with Manuel Badenes (Real Valladolid) and Ricardo Alós (Valencia) .

The team, with an excellent balance in defense and offense, won its sixth Spanish league title, finishing 3 points above Atletico Madrid despite a bad row of results during winter. Also, the squad clinched its third consecutive European Cup defeating A.C. Milan 3-2 after extra time at Heysel.[4]

In the Copa del Generalísimo, the squad reached another final, and were defeated this time by Athletic Bilbao 0-2.
