FC Barcelona is a football club based in Barcelona, that competes in La Liga, the most senior football league in Spain. The club was formed in 1899 by a group of Swiss, English and Spanish men led by Joan Gamper, and played its first friendly match on 8 December 1899. Initially Barcelona played against other local clubs in various Catalan tournaments, but in 1929 the club became one of the founding members of La Liga, Spain's first truly national league. As of 2014, Barcelona is one of only three clubs never to have been relegated from the top level of Spanish football, the others being Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid.[1]

Barcelona enjoyed a successful start in La Liga, winning the championship in the competition's first season. In the period from 1919 to 1929 "Barça" won the Copa del Rey five times and the Campionat de Catalunya nine times.[2] The club did not win the league again until 1945. Three seasons earlier Barcelona had finished twelfth, which remains, as of 2013, the club's lowest finishing position.[3] Barcelona won five trophies in the 1951–52 season, becoming known as "Barça of the Five Cups" (Catalan: el Barça de les Cinc Copes), and went on to win La Liga three times, the Copa del Rey five times and the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup once during the 1950s.[2] The club then entered a lean spell, however, with only two league titles between 1960 and 1990. In 1988, Johan Cruyff was appointed manager and assembled what would later be known as the "Dream Team".[4] In 1991 he led the club to its first league title for six years and repeated the feat the following season when the club also won the European Cup for the first time. In the 1993–94 season, Barcelona won a fourth consecutive league title, edging out Deportivo de La Coruña on goal difference after the two clubs finished level on points.[5][6]

Newly elected president Joan Laporta's appointment of Frank Rijkaard as coach and the signing of Ronaldinho in 2003 marked the beginning of another spell of sustained success.[7][8][9] In 2005 Barcelona once again won the La Liga championship, and retained it the following season. In May 2006 Barcelona defeated Arsenal in the Champions League final, coming back from 0–1 to win 2–1 in the last fifteen minutes.[10] Three years later, the club beat Manchester United 2–0 in the 2009 Champions League final, having already won La Liga and the Copa del Rey that season, to become the first Spanish side to complete the treble.[11] In December 2009, Barcelona won the FIFA Club World Cup, having also won the Spanish and European Super Cups, thereby completing an "unprecedented sextuple".[12]

The club has won the La Liga championship twenty-four times, the Copa del Rey twenty-eight times, the Copa de la Liga twice, the Supercopa de España eleven times, the Copa Eva Duarte three times, the European Cup five times, the Cup Winners' Cup four times, the Fairs Cup three times, the European Super Cup five times and the FIFA Club World Cup three times.[13] The table details the club's achievements in the early regional championships and in all national and international first-team competitions for each completed season since the club's formation in 1899.

La Liga era

In 1929, La Liga, Spain's first national football league, was formed, with Barcelona among the founder members.[17] The club also competed in the Catalan championship until it was abandoned in 1940.[15] The Copa del Rey continued alongside La Liga.[18] Clubs continued to qualify for it based on their placings in the regional championships until 1940, when it became open to all teams in the top two divisions of the Spanish League and selected other teams.[19] * Barcelona also won the Mediterranean League in 1937.
