His coach, Vicente del Bosque, would later become world champion with the Spanish team.

As the years go by, the feat becomes more relevant, since it was the last team to defeat Merengue in an international final in regular time. Since then, the Spanish team has played 18 matches of this style and won (almost) all of them. They barely lost the 2018 European Super Cup against Cholo Simeone’s Atlético de Madrid by 4-2, although in the 90s they finished 2-2 and in extra time Colchonero managed to lose the level.

That is, since the defeat against Boca in 2000, Real have won 17 international titles in 18 finals played, including a 2-0 victory against San Lorenzo in the 2014 Club World Cup.
