The Champions League was initially founded as the European Cup in 1955 and has provided football fans with endless entertainment ever since. But can you name every club to have lost in the final of Europe’s most prestigious competition since its inception?
Since the mid-1950s, there have been a lot of changes to both the competition and European football in general.
And in that time, a total of 36 clubs have come within one game of winning the trophy but were left disappointed.
It’s not as easy as it might sound. The only hints we’re giving you are the number of times each club has finished second and the year in which they did so.
If this gives you a taste for another challenge, have a go at naming the top 40 goalscorers in Champions League history.
