Gregorio Sena
Gregorio Sena Manterola (8 September 1890 – 22 May 1956) was a Spanish footballer who played as a midfielder for Real Sociedad and Athletic Club. His brothers Alfonso and Miguel also played for Real Sociedad. Biography Born in San Sebastián, he began his career in 1909 at his local club Real Sociedad, which had just been founded by, among others, his two older brothers. At the time, the teams who had not been legally registered for more than a year could not play official matches, and therefore, in order to play in the 1910 Copa del Rey, they borrowed the license from Vasconia de San Sebastián, under whose name they competed and reached the final, which they lost 0–1 to Athletic Club. In 1912, he joined RCD Espanyol, but after a brief successful spell he returned to Sociedad where he played until 1916, when he decided to retire at the age of 26. However, he reversed his decision and returned to Sociedad two years later, in 1918, and after a great season with the club, he ...

Copa Del Rey
The Campeonato de España–Copa de Su Majestad el Rey, commonly known as Copa del Rey or simply La Copa and formerly known as Copa del Presidente de la República (1932–36) and Copa del Generalísimo (1939–76), is an annual knockout football competition in Spanish football, organized by the Royal Spanish Football Federation. The competition was founded in 1903, thus making it the oldest Spanish football competition played at a national level. It is considered one of the most prestigious ''national cup'' trophies in the world. Copa del Rey winners qualify for the following season's UEFA Europa League. If they have already qualified for Europe through their league position, then the Europa League spot is given to the highest-placed team in the league who has not yet qualified (until 2014 this place was awarded to the Copa runners-up, unless they too had already qualified via the league). Barcelona is the most successful club in the competition, having won 31 Spanish Cup t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
FC Barcelona
Futbol Club Barcelona (), commonly referred to as Barcelona and colloquially known as Barça (), is a professional football club based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, that competes in La Liga, the top flight of Spanish football.

Pichichi (footballer)
Rafael Moreno Aranzadi (23 May 1892 – 1 March 1922), known as Pichichi, was a Spanish footballer who played as a forward. He played for Athletic Bilbao during the 1910s and 1920s. He received his nickname because of his frail build. Club career Born in Bilbao, Biscay, Pichichi played in his first Copa del Rey final in March 1913 as Athletic Bilbao, his sole club, lost 1–0 against Racing Club de Irún.

Easily identifiable on the pitch due to a white cloth he tied to his head, Pichichi subsequently played in five other domestic cup finals, winning four and netting a hat-trick in the 1915 final as Athletic beat RCD Español 5–0.
