The Estadio El Sardinero was a multi-use stadium in Santander, Spain. It was initially used as the stadium of Racing de Santander matches. It was replaced by the current Estadio El Sardinero in 1988. The capacity of the stadium was 20,000 spectators. In 1928, the stadium hosted the infamous Copa del Rey final between Barcelona and Real Sociedad, which needed 3 matches to decide the winners as the first two ended in 1–1 draws. Barcelona won 3–1 in the third match and the entire competition.{{cite web |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tabless/spancup1928.html |title=Spain - Cup 1928 |date=12 February 2001 |website=RSSSF |accessdate=15 July 2022 }}{{cite web |url=http://copadelrey.rfef.es/historia-del-campeonato-de-espana/1928-la-final-de-los-tres-partidos/ |title=1928 La final de los tres partidos |trans-title=1928 The final of the three matches |website=copadelrey.rfef.es |accessdate=15 July 2022 |archive-date=18 November 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211118184856/https://copadelrey.rfef.es/historia-del-campeonato-de-espana/1928-la-final-de-los-tres-partidos/ |url-status=dead }}
