Purchase affordable CD Leganes football tickets at SeatPick, and watch the small club battling Madrid's football titans at Estadio Municipal Butarque.
The Spanish capital of Madrid is the stage for a decades-long David and Goliath story featuring Club Deportivo Leganés, a team from the city suburbs, and football titans Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Many football fans outside the Pyrenees may have not even heard of the club, which is locally known as Los Pepineros (cucumbers).
This is something understandable, considering that for most of its history, the team competed in the lower tiers of Spanish professional football. Club Deportivo Leganes advanced to La Liga for the first time in the 2016-17 season, surpassing expectations by remaining in the elite league for four seasons.
Trophies may be lacking, but the hearts of fans were palpating with excitement in 2017 during a Copa del Rey quarterfinals football match at Santiago Bernabeu stadium. Then for the first time in club history, CD Leganes defeated Real Madrid and made it to the semi-finals of Copa del Rey.
Loyal fans are always present in the stands of Estadio Municipal de Butarque, the team's home ground. And buying tickets at affordable prices is available at SeatPick, where supporters can search for preferred fixtures of the Los Pepineros.
The club emerged on the Spanish football stage in 1928, with the first big challenge arriving with the Civil War that ravaged the country in the 1930'. This caused a suspension of professional football activities — forcing the club to go into a hiatus in 1936 and reform a decade later in 1946. At this time, the club modified its colours to green and white, providing more credibility to the nickname of cucumbers due to the cucumber orchards in the city. However, the new style went out of fashion in 1954, when a change in kit occurred with the adoption of blue and white colours.
The new visual look of the jerseys did not bring more luck. And in the 60s and 70s, CD Leganes continued to alternate between divisions. A wind of change arrived in the 80s when the club won the Third Division in 1986. And in 1987 successfully got promoted to Second Division B. Another historic milestone occurred in 1993, with the promotion to Second Division. The situation was generally the same, with migrations between divisions in the upcoming years. Until the nightmare 2008-09 season, when the financial crisis threatened the survival of CD Leganes.
Luckily, investors arrived in the nick of time and paid the club's debts. The new ownership, headed by Felipe Moreno and Victoria Pavón, created a more stable atmosphere. The long-awaited entry into La Liga happened in 2016 when CD Leganes became the fifth team from the Community of Madrid to play in La Liga. But the dream lasted for four seasons after the move back to Second Division in the 2020-21 season.

The South Madrid derby is the advertised name for the contested matches between CD Leganes and Getafe CF. It's a regional rivalry, with the first official match recorded on the books as occurring in 1948. Yet the intensity of the derby grew in the 1980s. There have been 35 matches between the football clubs, with Leganes winning in 13 encounters and Getafe in 12 games.
Coaches don't tend to stick for long in CD Leganes, and some of the managers that have left their mark on the club's history are Javier Aguirre József, Tóth Asier Garitano and Luis Ángel Duque.
Celebrity players shy away from lower-tier clubs. The roster of CD Leganes traditionally gets populated by local talent or players on loan from bigger clubs. Some names that built a reputation at Estadio Municipal Butarque include:
