UEFA Champions League
The UEFA Champions League, previously called the European Cup, is an annual football competition run by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). It features Europe’s top clubs competing through a group stage and knockout rounds, leading up to the final match.
The Champions League is hugely popular, watched by millions around the world, making it the most watched club competition and the third most watched football event after the UEFA European Championship and the FIFA World Cup. It is very prestigious and includes national league champions and some runners-up.
Started in 1955 as the European Champions Cup, the tournament adopted its current name and format in 1992, including a group stage. Over time, it expanded, allowing more teams from stronger leagues. Teams go through qualifying rounds before reaching the group stage, where they play in eight groups of four teams.
The winners and runners-up advance to the knockout stage. The winner of the tournament earns a place in next year’s Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, and starting in 2024, the FIFA Intercontinental Cup. The most titles were won by Spanish clubs, led by Real Madrid with 14 victories. Manchester City are the current champions, winning their first title in 2023 with a win over Inter Milan.
