Champions League History — Key Facts & Records
The European Cup began in 1955-56, with Real Madrid as the first-ever champion. The competition was officially rebranded the "UEFA Champions League" from the 1992-93 season onwards, and adopted a new 36-club "Swiss model" league phase starting in 2024-25. Seventy years after that first final, PSG became back-to-back champions by winning the 2025 and 2026 editions.
All-Time Champions
Real Madrid is the most successful club in the competition's history with 15 titles, including the first five editions in a row (1956-1960). AC Milan (7), Liverpool and Bayern Munich (6 each), and Barcelona (5) follow. Ajax have won four times, and clubs like Manchester United, Inter Milan, Juventus, Benfica, Nottingham Forest, Porto, and Chelsea round out the list of multiple-time champions. PSG joined this history by winning their first title in 2025 and retaining it in 2026 — matching the back-to-back feat previously achieved only by Real Madrid.
Iconic Moments in History
The Champions League has produced some of football's most unforgettable moments: Zinedine Zidane's volley in the 2002 final; Manchester United's two injury-time goals to beat Bayern Munich in 1999; Liverpool's "Miracle of Istanbul" in 2005, overturning a 3-0 deficit against AC Milan to win on penalties; and Liverpool's own comeback against Barcelona in the 2019 semifinal after losing the first leg 3-0. There have also been tragedies that changed European football forever, like the 1985 Heysel disaster. The most recent chapter belongs to PSG: a 5-0 demolition of Inter Milan in 2025 — the biggest winning margin in a final — followed by another title in 2026 against an Arsenal side that had topped the league phase with a perfect record.
