Real Zaragoza
Real Zaragoza, S.A.D. is a Spanish association football team from Zaragoza in Aragon. Founded on 18 March 1932, Real Zaragoza have spent the majority of their 78 year history in the Spanish top-flight. Real Zaragoza are Spain's 9th hightest ranked team in overall league points. They are ranked 6th overall for cup wins with 6 victories in the Copa del Rey, and also have a UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, an Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (forerunner to the UEFA Cup/Europa League), and a Spanish Supercup. Traditionally, they play in white shirts and socks with royal blue shorts for home games, with black and yellow away kits. The home stadium is called La Romareda and seats 34,596 spectators.
What is to be considered Zaragoza's derby match of every season, are the encounters with CA Osasuna. The two teams are relatively close to one another, both representing the largest teams from their respective regions of Aragon and Navarra. CA Osasuna's city of Pamplona is 145 km away from Zaragoza, and matches in both stadiums usually involve a high number of travelling fans. Songs chanted at the expense of Osasuna can be heard on almost any match day in La Romareda, let alone during the derby.
There is also an Aragon derby, between Real Zaragoza and SD Huesca. Opinions are divided on whether this is a friendly match or a meeting of fierce competition, although it is difficult to determine which, and with good reason; the two teams have only ever played in the same division on two occasions, the most recent of which was the 2008/09 season. Outside of competition the two clubs share a good business relationship, with a history of many players being sent back and forth between them.
Zaragoza have a friendly relationship with CD Numancia, the current second division club from Soria. This may be due to the fact that the two cities are relatively close, with Soria being the capital of the nearby province of the same name, in the Castile and Leon region.
