Match details
Athletic Bilbao automatically qualified for the final.
Club Español de Madrid had tied one game and had not completed the other game in 1904 Copa del Rey, which led Athletic to file a complaint. Faced with this problem and unable to quickly solve the case, coupled with the rush of players from the Basque club to return to their occupations, the Madrid Association decided to award the cup to Athletic as defending champions.

gollark: I don't think that's actually true unless you can go to ridiculous lengths like "run entire universe simulation backwards", in any case.
gollark: I mean... maybe, but it's more about making it very difficult.
gollark: I mean, how do people manage to mess this stuff up? I hesitate to say that I could do better about presumably very complex things, but it seems like a lot of the time the phone network is terrible and even I could do better at designing it.
gollark: Apparently there's yet *another* issue with phone network stuff (https://www.rtl-sdr.com/eavesdropping-on-lte-calls-with-a-usrp-software-defined-radio/) because apparently the designers/implementors are... idiots, so far as I can tell?
gollark: It does exist, but if people keep going "well it's not real anyway" a lot as if it's already gone, that will not really help.
