Show us where the phrase “the Roman Catholic Church is the real Church” is in Scripture and then you might have cause to claim that it the one true church that Jesus founded.
Claiming to be it retroactively means nothing.

"And John answered and said, 'Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us.' And Jesus said to him, 'Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us'." (Luke 9:49,50)
Of course Rome would have anyone who is not bowing to the Pope is against them, but that is another discussion.
