Spanish football club FC Barcelona's seasons have resulted in twenty-four La Liga championships, twenty-nine Copa del Rey wins and five European Cups. 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. Barcelona enjoyed a successful start in La Liga, winning the championship in the competition's first season. Barcelona won five trophies in the 1951–52 season, becoming known as "Barça of the Five Cups", 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. In 1991, Johan Cruyff 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 2009, Barcelona beat Manchester United 2–0 in the 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.
