2020/21
Real Madrid - Liverpool 1-0
Vinícius Junior’s goal
saw Real Madrid extend its record for victories in European soccer’s
biggest game. The final’s kickoff was delayed more than 30 minutes because
of chaotic scenes at the overcrowded stadium gates.
Deep down, Real
Madrids run to the Champions League final was a dream of stirring
comebacks and insurmountable odds and impossible triumphs.
Liverpool
where again beaten, this time after a single goal from Vincius junior in
the 59`minute. |

Chelsea - Man.City 1-0
Chelsea won the Champions League after
battling it out in front of thousands of English fans in Porto, Portugal.
The blue`s 1-0 victory signaled a bitter blow for Manchester City,
with the club having never won European club football's top prize. The
west London club had led at half-time after a 42nd-minute goal from Kai
Havertz, and was able to hang on despite City peppering their goal with
shots in the dying minutes of the game. Chelseas Ngolo Kante (pictured)
was named the finals "man of the match" |

Bayern München
- Paris SG 1-0
Unexpectedly, it wasn't Robert
Lewandowski, Kylian Mbappe or Neymar who was the match-winner, it was 'The
King' .
Kingsley Coman - a man who has won a league title in all
eight seasons as a first-team player - headed the only goal for Bayern to
leave him as the only Parisian celebrating in Lisbon.
"This is an
extraordinary feeling," he said. "I feel a lot of joy, but also sadness
for Paris. It hurts my heart a bit even though I am 100% Bayern." |

Liverpool - Tottenham 2-0
It was Mohamed Salah who set Liverpool
on their way with a penalty after two minutes when Moussa Sissoko was
contentiously punished for handball.
Spurs had chances but were denied
by Liverpool keeper Alisson, who saved well from Son Heung-min, Lucas
Moura and Christian Eriksen.
And their failure to capitalise was
ruthlessly punished when substitute Divock Origi ensured manager Jurgen
Klopp won his first trophy as Liverpool manager by driving low and
powerfully past Hugo Lloris with three minutes left. This was Liverpools
6th title. |

R.Madrid - Liverpool 3-1
Six minutes after half-time, the German
inexplicably threw the ball against Karim Benzema, who was not even
challenging with urgency, and watched in horror as the ball rolled behind
him into the net.
Liverpool recovered from the shock to equalise
through Sadio Mane before Bale stepped off the bench to score his wonder
goal.
There was to be no comeback from Liverpool this time as Bale's
hopeful 30-yard shot behind him to seal Real's win. It sealed Real's
record 13th win in this competition |

R.Madrid - A.Madrid 1-1 (Real wins pen)
Real Madrid became the first team to retain the UEFA Champions
League, and Cristiano Ronaldo the first player to score in three finals,
with a devastating 4-1 defeat of Juventus. Juventus might have lost their
four previous UEFA Champions League finals – including 2015 – but they
started full of confidence with a good spell. However, this was Reals
nigth once again. Two from Ronaldo, one each from Casemiro and Asensio
made sure that Mandzukic`s goal never became anything than a consolation
goal. |

R.Madrid - A.madrid 1-1 (Real wins pen)
From Telegraph:
Barcelona after 120 minutes of football and eight penalties,
Cristiano Ronaldo put the ball on the spot and lashed the fifth out of
five for Real Madrid to claim their 11th European title.
And so
Ronaldo and Real put to bed the hopes and dreams of poor old Atletico,
left broken-hearted again after the club’s third European Cup final
defeat.
Goalscorers in the game itself was Ramos with 1-0 for Real and
Carrasco with 1-1 for Atletico. |

Barcelona -
Juventus 3-1
From BBC:
Barcelona claimed their third Champions League in six years as
the brilliance of their attacking trident proved too much for the brave
challenge of Juventus in Berlin's Olympic Stadium.
In a thrilling
spectacle, and with both Barcelona and Juventus attempting to claim a
treble after winning domestic league and cup competitions, it was Luis
Enrique's side that eventually came out on top.
Goals from Suarez,
Raktic and Neymar calaimed the victory. Juventus goal was scored by
Morata. |

Real Madrid -
Atletico Madrid 4-1 A.E.T.
Real Madrid became the champions of Europe for a record 10th time
after a dramatic 4-1 victory over city rivals Atletico Madrid in the
Champions League final in Lisbon. Twelve years and over a billion pounds
spent on players since they won their ninth European crown, Real have
“La Decima” they desperately craved thanks to an injury time goal by
Sergio Ramos before Gareth Bale turned the match in extra time in
Lisbon’s Estadio da Luz. Substitute Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo (from
the penalty spot) then each scored in the 117th and 120th minutes to
clinch the victory. |

B.Münich - Bor Dor 2-1
Bayern Munich
defeated Borussia Dortmund 2-1
to win soccer’s Champions League for the fifth time. Arjen Robben’s goal
in the 89th minute at Wembley Stadium in London gave Bayern its first
title since
2001 in Europe’s elite club competition. The German

Mario Mandzukic opened the

B.Münich - Chelsea 1-1 aet. 3-4 pen.
With two minutes to go and Chelsea down 1-0 to
the German team in its home stadium, Drogba
soared high from a corner to head home the
equalizer and force 30 minutes of extra time,
which ended 1-1. When it was still level after four
penalty kicks each, the 34-year-old from Ivory Coast
who makes a habit of scoring crucial goals did so
again, sliding home the winner and giving Chelsea
its first Champions League title. |

Barcelona - Manchester United 3-1
There was no repeat of 1968 Wembley
euphoria for
Manchester United in their bid to lift a fourth European
Cup, just an unwelcome reminder of how it felt to be
outplayed in 2009. Once again, United could not get
enough of the ball to do themselves justice, once again
their most experienced players were unable to impose
themselves and for a second time in three seasons,
Barcelona did almost exactly as they pleased. |

The Dutch master was bettered by his pupil
Saturday
when Jose Mourinho's
Inter Milan strolled to a
comfortable 2-0 victory in the Champions
League finalover a weak Bayern Munich team coached by his
one-time boss Louis van
Gaal.
Argentina's Diego Milito

Arsenal took the lead through Sol Campbell eight

began to look increasingly
likely as the second
half wore on.
In his last match for the club, though,
veteran striker Henrik Larsson turned
the course of the
match after coming on on the hour mark, creating goals
for
first Eto'o then Juliano Belletti as the Catalan side
fought back to win.

Seventy-two teams. One hundred and ninety-seven

road to Glasgow took its
toll. But for Real Madrid
the
journey was well worth the while. The reward for
Vicente del Bosque's men
was a third uefa Champions

Valencia enjoyed a 4-1 drubbing of Barcelona

narrow 2-1 loss
at Camp Nou. In hindsight, it was the
least Héctor Cúper's side deserved.
For they were
not their usual exuberant selves in the final and Madrid
took
full advantage with goals from Fernando Morientes,

Six times winners of the

the Merengues had been frustrated in their quest
for
a seventh. That all changed in 1997/98, however, to the

(Juventus
win on penalties)
"We have waited a long time. We never really

1985 as a victory because of Heysel." Juventus official
Roberto
Bettega was in no doubt as to the significance
of the club's UEFA
Champions League success of
1995/96. Their win against AFC Ajax in Rome
was a
"real" European Champion Clubs' Cup triumph, the
one against
Liverpool FC eleven years earlier an empty

Ajax - AC Milan 1-0
Louis van Gaal's talented tyros (average age 23)
were
to follow in the footsteps of Cruyff and Co, but they
would
have to overcome Milan a third time.
The Rossoneri's class and experience had
been too
much for Benfica and PSG in the knockout phase - yet
the elder
statesmen were found wanting in the Vienna
final. Worn down by Ajax's young
legs, they eventually
succumbed to a late goal by substitute Patrick Kluivert.

Trivia
The Champions Cup's
first hat-trick was scored by Péter Palotás of Budapesti
Vörös Lobogó SE
against R.S.C. Anderlecht on September 7, 1955, in the second
match ever played
in the competition.
Francisco Gento is the only player to be on 6
Champions Cup-winning sides.
Bob Paisley is the only man to coach 3
Champions Cup-winning sides with Liverpool.
in 1977, 1978 and 1981.
Clarence Seedorf is
the only player to win the Champions Cup with 3
different teams:
Ajax Amsterdam 1995
Real Madrid 1998
A.C. Milan 2003
The city of Milan, Italy, is the only one that
won the Champions Cup with two
different teams:
Inter & Milan (the two clubs have won 8 cups in total).
Many clubs won the
Cup unbeaten: Internazionale (1964), Ajax Amsterdam (1972)
and Liverpool (1984) are those with the best record, 7 wins and 2 draws. Ajax,
L
iverpool and A.C.
Milan are the only teams to have won the trophy unbeaten twice.
Real Madrid have the record number of consecutive participations in the Champions'
Cup with 15, from 1955/56 to 1969/70.
On three
occasions has the Final of the Champions Cup/League involved
two teams from the same country: Real Madrid v Valencia (1999/00),
A.C. Milan v Juventus (2002/03), and Chelsea -Manchster United (2007/08)
In the long history of the cup, only four
derbies between teams
of the same city have been played:
1958/59 Real Madrid vs Atlético de Madrid (semifinal)
2002/03 Internazionale (Milan) vs A.C. Milan (semifinal)
2003/04 Chelsea vs Arsenal (quarterfinal)
2004/05 Internazionale vs A.C. Milan (quarterfinal)
2nd leg was abandoned because of disturbances among the Inter fans.
Only four teams have completed the "treble" —
win their domestic league championship,
their primary domestic cup, and the Champions League/European Cup.
These were (in order) Celtic, Ajax Amsterdam, PSV Eindhoven and Manchester
United.
Celtic managed this in 1966/67, also winning the Scottish League Cup and Glasgow
Cup that year.
In 1972 Ajax won the European Cup, their domestic league and cup.
The following
season they also
won the European Super Cup and the European/
South American Cup. PSV did this in
1987/88.
Manchester United won their treble during the 1998/99 season.
Ajax Amsterdam was unbeaten in the Champions
Cup/League for 20 matches
from 1985/86
to March 1996, when they lost 0-1 to Panathinaikos in Amsterdam.
The 2002/03
semifinal between bitter city rivals A.C. Milan and Internazionale was the
first time both games of a two-legged tie were in the same stadium (San Siro).
This matchup was repeated in the 2004/05 quarterfinals.
Only two
individuals have won the Champions League with the same club as
a player then later as a coach. Miguel Muñoz of Real Madrid did it as a player
in
1955/56 and 1956/57, before winning it as a coach in 1965/66. Carlo Ancelotti
did it as an A.C. Milan player in 1988/89 and 1989/90 before coaching them to
victory in 2002/03.
Cesare Maldini and his son Paolo are the only
father and son duo to skipper the
same club to victory in the competition. Cesare led A.C. Milan to victory in
1962/63,
and Paolo captained them to victory in 2002/03.
The anthem of the
Champions League, which is played during prematch ceremonies
before each match and introduces television coverage of the competition, is by
Tony
Britten, based on George Frideric Handel's coronation anthem "Zadok the Priest",
and
is performed by the Chorus of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields and the
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Ottmar Hitzfeld and
Ernst Happel are the only coaches in the history of the
European Cup/UEFA Champions League to win the title with two different clubs.
Hitzfeld did so with Borussia Dortmund in 1997 and Bayern Munich in 2001; Happel
led Feijenoord (now Feyenoord) in 1970 and Hamburg in 1983.
Olympique de
Marseille were the first winners of the new format UEFA Champions
League in
1993.
Manchester United's treble-winners of 1998/99
were the first winners of the
tournament to have won neither their domestic title nor the European
Cup/
Champions League
the previous season. In 1997/98, United finished runners-up in
the Premiership
to Arsenal and
lost in the quarterfinals of the Champions League
to Monaco.
Nottingham Forest are the only club to have won
the European Cup more times (twice)
than they have won their domestic league (once). Forest won the English League
in 1978
before winning the European Cup in 1979 and defending it in 1980.
Nottingham Forest also have the unfortunate
distinction of being the only winners of the
European Cup to have later been relegated out of the top two divisions in their
country
(they remain in the English football league system's third tier (Football League
One).
Paolo Maldini of Milan scored the fastest ever
goal in Champions League in
2005 final against Liverpool inside 53 seconds. He was also the oldest (37 year
old)
to score in Champions League final.
All 11 goals, including the penalty shoot-out,
were scored in the same goal in 2005's
final between AC Milan and Liverpool.
With Liverpool's win in the 2005 final, the
number of teams permitted to wear UEFA's
special badge of honour is now five. The badge is awarded in perpetuity to teams
that
have either won the competition a total of five times, or have won it three
years
in succession.
Five or more wins: Real Madrid, AC Milan,
Liverpool
Three wins in succession: Ajax Amsterdam, Bayern Munich
Five men have scored a hat-trick on their debut
in the Champions League
Marco van Basten (A.C. Milan), Faustino
Asprilla (Newcastle United),
Aiyegbeni Yakubu (Maccabi Haifa), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United),
Vincenzo Iaquinta (Udinese)
One man have scored five goals in a Champions League match.
Lionel Messi (Barcelona) achived this when scoring five goals in 59.min
against Bayer Leverkusen at Nou camp March 7th 2012.
Barcelona won the game 7-1.
(10 players have tough achived this when the cup was called the European cup.)
Five men have also scored 4 goals in one
Champions League match
Marco van Basten (A.C. Milan), Filippo Inzaghi (Juventus), Dado Prso (AS Monaco
FC)
Ruud van Nistelrooy (Manchester United) and Andrej Sjevtsjenko (AC Milan)
Raúl becomes the first player in the history of
