[edit] Biggest two leg win

[edit] Not winning the domestic league

  • 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 are also the only previous winners of the European Cup to be later relegated to the third tier of their national league (in 2005).
  • The competition format was changed in 1997-1998 to allow teams that were not champions of their domestic league to compete in the competition. Since then there have been "European" Champions who had not been domestic champions. Notable instances include the following
    • 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. Since then, Real Madrid 2000, Milan 2003, 2007, Liverpool 2005, and FC Barcelona 2009 have achieved this feat.
    • Liverpool's 2005 triumph came 15 years after their previous domestic league title (1990). That was the longest time any Champions League winner had gone since previously winning their league. Prior to this the longest time period for any winner was Milan, whose victory in 2003 had come 4 years since their last Serie A win.
  • Bayer Leverkusen (in 2002) are the only club to play in the final having never previously won their domestic league.

[edit] Comebacks

[edit] Defence

  • Arsenal broke the record for the most consecutive clean sheets in 2006, with ten. They went without conceding a goal for 995 minutes between September 2005 and May 2006.

[edit] Successful defending

  • Milan are the last team to successfully defend the trophy, winning it in both 1989 and 1990.

[edit] Cities

  • The 2002–03 semi-final between bitter city rivals A.C. Milan and F.C. Internazionale Milano was the first time both games of a two-legged tie were played in the same stadium (San Siro). The teams share the stadium as their home venue. Milan won by the 'away goals' rule. The teams also played each other in the same stadium in the 2004–05 quarter-final.

[edit] Specific group stage records

Four teams have won all their games in a group stage (none of whom went on to win the title that year — although AC Milan got closest by finishing runners-up); these are:

As a player
As a manager:

[edit] Oldest and youngest

[edit] Winning other trophies

  • Rafael Benítez is the only manager to have won the UEFA Cup and the Champions League in consecutive seasons with two different clubs, winning the UEFA Cup in 2004 with Valencia and the Champions League in 2005 with Liverpool.
  • Bob Paisley won the UEFA Cup and the European Cup in consecutive seasons with the same club, winning the UEFA Cup in 1976 with Liverpool and the European Cup in 1977. José Mourinho later replicated the feat, winning the UEFA Cup in 2003 with Porto and the Champions League in 2004.

[edit] Goalscoring

[edit] Red Cards

Only two players have ever been sent off in a Champions League Final. Jens Lehmann (Arsenal) in the 2006 UEFA Champions League Final against FC Barcelona - sent off in the 18th minute for a professional foul after bringing down Samuel Eto'o - and Didier Drogba (Chelsea) in the 2008 Champions League Final - sent off in the 117th minute for slapping Manchester United player Nemanja Vidić.

Both players' teams lost their respective finals.

[edit] Qualifying from Qualification Round 1

  • Since the addition of a third qualifying round in 1999–00, Liverpool and Artmedia Bratislava were the first two teams to negotiate all three rounds of qualification and reach the Champions League group phase, both doing so in 2005–06. In 2008–09 the Cypriot side Anorthosis Famagusta and the Belarusian side BATE Borisov negotiated all three rounds to become the third and fourth teams in the history of Champions league to accomplish this feat. Liverpool went on to become the first team in the history of the competition to reach the knockout phase from the first qualifying round.

[edit] Consecutive Home Wins

Manchester United hold the record of consecutive home wins in the Champions League. They have 12 consecutive home wins which was achieved when they defeated FC Barcelona 1–0 on 29 April 2008. This run was ended with a 0–0 draw against Villarreal on 17 September 2008.

[edit] Consecutive Wins

FC Barcelona holds the record of 11 consecutive wins (including third qualifying round) in the Champions League (2002–03)

[edit] Longest Undefeated Run

The record for the longest unbeaten run stands at 25 games held by Manchester United. It began with a 1-0 away win against Sporting CP in their opening group stage game of the 2007-08 UEFA Champions League season and has finished with 3-1 away win against Arsenal in the second leg of the semi-final of the 2008-09 UEFA Champions League season. Manchester United had their 25 game unbeaten streak end with a 2-0 loss to Barcelona in the final.

This broke the previous record of 20 consecutive games unbeaten by Ajax, which began with a 0-0 home draw against Porto in the second leg of the first round of the 1985-86 European cup, and after a 8 year hiatus from the competition resumed through a 2-0 home win against Milan in their opening group stage game of the 1994-95 UEFA Champions League season, and ended with a 0-1 home loss to Panathinaikos in the first leg of the semi-final of the 1995-96 UEFA Champions League season; which was itself followed by Bayern Munich's achievement of 19 consecutive games unbeaten, which began with a 1-0 home win against Arsenal on matchday six of the second group stage of the 2000-01 UEFA Champions League season, and ended with a 0-2 away loss to Real Madrid in the second leg of the quarter-finals of the 2001-02 Champions League season.

[edit] The biggest disparity between a group winner and runner-up

The biggest points difference between the first- and second-placed teams in a Champions League group phase is 11 points, achieved by two teams:

[edit] Fewest number of wins away from home

Since the inception of the Champions League in 1992, Celtic have played 26 games away from home, including qualifying rounds and won just three. However, excluding the qualifying rounds, in the group and Last 16 stages Celtic have played 23 games away from home and won none. Indeed their last victory away from home in the Europe's top competition, excluding qualifying rounds, came in the first round of the old European Cup in season 1986–87, a 1–0 victory over Shamrock Rovers of the Republic of Ireland. This record is the worst of any team that has played in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League more than once. [9]
