Real Madrid 1974-75 Coached by the recently departed Miljan Miljanic, Real did the double in the 1974-75 season. Topping the league with a comfortable 12 points between themselves and Real Zaragoza and beating city rivals Atletico on penalties (4-3) for the Copa del Rey.

At the helm of the Yugoslav side Red Star Belgrade, he twice saw off the English champions Liverpool in home and away legs of a European cup tie in 1973, leading to a rethink that had major ramifications, enabling English domination of European competition until the ban that followed the Heysel disaster 12 years later…” Brian Glanville
