## Champions League: La Decimoquinta

Real Madrid secured its 15th European Cup by beating [Borussia Dortmund](https://www.edgepedia.org/borussia-dortmund) in the final at [Wembley Stadium](https://www.edgepedia.org/wembley-stadium) on 1 June 2024, with Daniel Carvajal and Vini Jr scoring, and finished the competition undefeated.<sup>[2](https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/the-club/history/football/first-team/)</sup> It was the club's sixth Champions League in 10 years.<sup>[2](https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/the-club/history/football/first-team/)</sup> Across the whole 2023/24 edition, the competition's leading scorers were [Kylian Mbappé](https://www.edgepedia.org/kylian-mbappe) and Harry Kane with 8 goals each, followed by Vinícius Júnior with 6; Rodrygo and Valverde were among the players with the most appearances, 13 each.<sup>[7](https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/history/seasons/2024/)</sup>

## Supercopa de España

Before the league and European triumphs, Ancelotti's side overcame Barcelona in the final to win its 13th Spanish Super Cup.<sup>[2](https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/the-club/history/football/first-team/)</sup> The RFEF record of the competition lists the 2024 final as won by Real Madrid CF over [FC Barcelona](https://www.edgepedia.org/fc-barcelona).<sup>[8](https://rfef.es/es/noticias/palmares-los-blancos-suman-su-13o-entorchado-y-acechan-el-liderato-azulgrana)</sup>

## Squad and tactics

The season was shaped by the absence of a recognized striker after [Karim Benzema](https://www.edgepedia.org/karim-benzema)'s departure to Saudi Arabia and the lack of a replacement, with rumored moves for [Harry Kane](https://www.edgepedia.org/harry-kane) and Kylian Mbappé not coming to fruition.<sup>[9](https://totalfootballanalysis.com/match-analysis/la-liga-202324-almeria-vs-real-madrid-tactical-analysis-tactics)</sup> Coach Carlo Ancelotti responded with a 4-4-2 diamond in which [Jude Bellingham](https://www.edgepedia.org/jude-bellingham), signed from Borussia Dortmund, operated as a very high attacking midfielder and often the chief presence in the box.<sup>[9](https://totalfootballanalysis.com/match-analysis/la-liga-202324-almeria-vs-real-madrid-tactical-analysis-tactics)</sup> Bellingham finished his first season with 23 goals and 13 assists, a return the Spanish press described as dazzling, with Vinicius and Rodrygo ahead of him and Bellingham arriving from behind.<sup>[5](https://as.com/futbol/primera/un-dilema-heredado-f202601-n/)</sup>

**Veteran milestones.** With the three titles, [Nacho](https://www.edgepedia.org/nacho-footballer-born-1990) and [Luka Modrić](https://www.edgepedia.org/luka-modric) extended their club legends, becoming the two players with the most trophies in Real Madrid history at 26 each.<sup>[1](https://www.realmadrid.com/es-ES/noticias/futbol/primer-equipo/actualidad/el-real-madrid-cerro-la-temporada-con-tres-titulos-champions-liga-y-supercopa-de-espana-06-06-2024)</sup>

## Aftermath

The season's success carried into the following campaign's opening fixture: in August 2024 Real Madrid won a record sixth European Super Cup in Warsaw, beating Atalanta with goals from Valverde and Mbappé, the latter having joined the club that summer.<sup>[2](https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/the-club/history/football/first-team/)</sup> The tactical balance that had defined 2023/24 changed with Mbappé's arrival, which required a rejig from the 4-3-1-2 formation of the title season.<sup>[10](https://www.fotmob.com/en-GB/topnews/15951-analysis-real-madrids-issues-go-beyond-clasico-thrashing)</sup>
