UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
SOCCER
The UEFA Champions League and its predecessor, the European Cup, has been contested
since the 1955-56 season.
In that time there have been dynasties, surprise winners, and upsets, with each edition
adding to the lore of what is now widely considered the premier club competition on Earth.
After 63 years, several clubs have been established as giants of the tournament, but there
have also been champions that may surprise modern observers.
Real Madrid leads the pack of past champions, holding on to a lead that will take several
years, if not decades, for another club to surpass.
