1 Records With Walter Samuel grounded and goalkeeper Julio Cesar a bemused onlooker, Gareth Bale scores the first Tottenham Hotspur FC goal against FC Internazionale Milano at San Siro. The UEFA Champions League newcomers came back from 4-0 down at half-time to lose 4-3; Bale performed the rare feat of hitting a hat-trick for a side playing with 10 men; and it allowed English clubs to take over from Italy at the top of the hat-trick chart.

14 UEFA Champions League Records THE LANDMARK GOALS UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE The format of the UEFA Champions League has fluctuated between the 25-game campaign in its inaugural year to the 157 fixtures when two group stages were played and, in recent years, the 125-match season from group stage to final. The scoring rate increased during the 2010/11 campaign but it has basically stabilised at a level which permits a thousand goals to be added to the total in just over three years. After Daniel Amokachi s historic opener in 1992, it wasn t until the competition s seventh season that the 1,000-goal landmark was reached, The 2010/11 campaign kicked-off just a few strikes short of the 5,000 mark, with, including Amokachi, 50 names on the list of players who had laid milestones. Curiously, on the opening day of the season, the two games in Group B proved to be a battleground to decide who would go into the history books as the scorer of the 5,000th goal, with two Brazilians, Michel Bastos and Anderson Luís da Silva Luisão opening the score for Olympique Lyonnais and SL Benfica respectively in the 21st minute of their matches. It took something approaching rocket science to separate the contenders, with Bastos hitting goal number 4,999 and Luisão the 5,000th just 0.14 seconds later. The 2010/11 milestone-layers perpetuated a recent trend. Whereas the early part of the list reads like a who s who of specialised strikers, goal - scoring patterns have varied, allowing defenders like Luisão, Younes Kaboul or Marcelo to share the limelight with the front men.

22 UEFA Champions League Records GOALLESS DRAWS If it seems strange that it took until late April for the inaugural UEFA Champions League to produce a goal-less draw, it has to be recalled that the group stage was preceded by two knock-out rounds and the competition proper spanned the winter break. In those early days, when critics were wondering whether the competition would be a success or not, it was even a cause for concern when, as soon as the field had been expanded to sixteen clubs, three of the eight games on the opening matchday of the 1994/95 season ended goal-less. Although this record was equalled in the following season, it is one that, during the long history of the competition, has never been beaten albeit helped by the fact that, in recent times, fixtures have been spread over two days. The clubs most involved in goal-less draws tend to be those who have played the most matches. But the bottom end of that particular chart reveals some interesting statistical comments on playing styles and philosophies. Is it by accident, for example, that Rosenborg BK, despite participating eleven times in the UEFA Champions League, have only once sent spectators home without seeing a goal? Or that Olympique Lyonnais have done so only twice?

30 UEFA Champions League Records LOWEST ATTENDANCES Although the UEFA Champions League is synonymous with massive attendances and huge TV viewing figures, the history of the competition has been sparsely decorated with some astonishingly low attendance figures. Venues obviously offer wide variations which is why comparisons are usually based on percentages of stadium capacity rather than just numbers. It s interesting to note, however, that matches played by Juventus in the Stadio delle Alpi feature prominently on a list which also evokes memories of some exceptional circumstances. The Juventus v Bayer 04 Leverkusen fixture which appears in seventh place, for example, should have been played eight days earlier. But fog rolling into the Stadio delle Alpi produced two postponements and obliged the game to be played on a Thursday afternoon. The match which occupies first place in the chart belongs to the inaugural season when group games spanned the winter break, with the extent of the Moscow winter obliging CSKA to play two of their home games in Berlin. And the third-lowest attendance, also involving Juventus, needs to be put into the context of heavy snowfalls which, at one stage, seemed likely to prevent the Italian expedition from flying into Romania. Whatever the circumstances, it remains an impressive statistic that only 61 of 2033 UEFA Champions League matches have been played to an audience of less than 10,000. Att.

32 UEFA Champions League Records MILESTONES History issues challenges to the future. Some challenges will be met. Others will withstand the test of time. Logic, for instance, says that the attendance record set in 1960 will never be surpassed. But other gauntlets are there to be picked up by the players and coaches of today and tomorrow. Can anyone score a hat-trick in a final for the first time since 1969? Will anybody ever beat Paco Gento s record of six wins? Who will be the next to become champion of Europe as both player and coach? Here are some of the milestones laid during the first 56 years. Which of them will be re-laid in the future? TOTAL NUMBER OF GOALS IN FINALS 151 (Average: 2.65 per final) TOTAL NUMBER OF SPECTATORS AT FINALS 3,678,309 (Average 65,679 per match) - not including the replay in 1975 RECORD ATTENDANCE 127,621 Hampden Park, Glasgow, on 18 May 1960 (Real Madrid CF 7 Eintracht Frankfurt 3) LOWEST ATTENDANCE 23,325 Heyselstadion, Brussels, for replayed final on Friday 17 May 1974 (FC Bayern München 4 Club Atlético de Madrid 0) Lowest at normal final: 26,732 Wankdorf Stadion, Berne on 31 May 1961 (SL Benfica 3 FC Barcelona 2) FIRST SUBSTITUTIONS By Rinus Michels during half-time at the 1969 final between AFC Ajax and AC Milan (Ben Muller for Wim Suurbier and Klaas Nuninga for Henk Groot) EARLIEST SUBSTITUTIONS FC Bayern München defender Björn Andersson had to be replaced by Sepp Weiss after only 4 minutes of the 1975 final against Leeds United AFC. The second-earliest - also in a final involving FC Bayern - was the first-ever substitution of a goalkeeper during a final. Aston Villa FC s Jimmy Rimmer was injured after only 10 minutes and replaced by Nigel Spink. Since then, two more keepers have been replaced in finals: Iker Casillas for Real Madrid CF s César Domínguez in 2002; and Manuel Almunia for Arsenal FC s red-carded Jens Lehmann in

33 SUCCESSFUL PENALTIES IN FINALS 10 Alfredo Di Stéfano (1957), Ferenc Puskás (1960), Eusébio (1962), Amancio Amaro (1966), Sandro Mazzola (1967), Velibor Vasovic (1969), Phil Neal (1977), Michel Platini (1985), Gaizka Mendieta (2001), Stefan Effenberg (2001) MISSED PENALTIES IN FINALS 3 Enrique Mateos (Real Madrid CF v Stade de Reims in 1959) Mehmet Scholl (FC Bayern München v Valencia CF in 2001) Xabi Alonso (Liverpool FC v AC Milan in 2005) - but he became the first to convert the rebound OWN GOALS IN FINALS 1 FC Barcelona goalkeeper Antonio Ramallets for SL Benfica in 1961 YOUNGEST CHAMPION António Simões (SL Benfica 1962) aged 18 years, 139 days OLDEST CHAMPION Paolo Maldini (AC Milan 2007) aged 38 years, 332 days FOREIGN COACHES AS WINNERS of the 56 finals played so far have been won by teams with a foreign coach on the bench - including Scottish coaches of English teams NON-NATIVE COACHES In 2010, Josè Mourinho (Portugal) became the fifth imported coach to win the UEFA Champions League after Belgium s Raymond Goethals (1993), Scotland s Sir Alex Ferguson (1999, 2008), Spain s Rafael Benítez (2005) and Netherlands Frank Rijkaard (2006) FIRST PENALTY-SAVER The first spot kick - taken by Liverpool FC s Steve Nicol - of the first penalty shoot-out in a final failed to hit the net. AS Roma s Franco Tancredi thus became the first successful goalkeeper in a penalty shoot-out, though he finished on the losing side. 33

34 UEFA Champions League Records THE POST SCRIPT Victory in the UEFA Champions League marks the end of a successful campaign but it is not the end of the story. The champion earns a place in the UEFA Super Cup and a trip to the FIFA Club World Cup, this year to be held in Yokohama and Toyota City from 8 to 18 December. Both commitments have taken on new shapes since the UEFA Champions League was born in the 1992/93 season. For the first five years, the UEFA Super Cup was played on a homeand-away basis against the winner of the UEFA Cup Winners Cup. Then, as from 1998, the opposition was the same, but the format was changed to a single match. When the Cup Winners Cup was discontinued, the invitation was passed to the winners of the UEFA Cup, with Galatasaray AS the first to accept it in The traditional curtain-raiser to the European season has been held at the Stade Louis II in Monaco every year since becoming a one-off match in The meeting between UEFA Champions League winners FC Barcelona and UEFA Europa League holders FC Porto on 26 August was the 14th edition held in the principality. Yet after a 15th next year, the showpiece will move to new surroundings following a decision taken by the UEFA Executive Committee in Nyon on 1 June starting with the Eden Stadium in The Eden Stadium has a 20,800 capacity and opened in May 2008 on the site of the old ground of the same name. It is home to Bohemians 1905 and SK Slavia Praha. It was one of Slavia s most famous sons, Vladimír Šmicer, who cut the ribbon to officially launch the 40m venue. A Slavia XI took on English amateur team Oxford University AFC, their first foreign opponents 112 years ago, in the first match at the new ground, winning 5-0. One of the competition s anecdotes is that the first winner of the UEFA Champions League has never played in it, Olympique de Marseille having been barred from competing and replaced by the silver-medallists, AC Milan - who lost. By doing so, they wrote the first chapter of a story which has not always been a happy one for the winners of the UEFA Champions League: 1993 AC Milan lost 2-1 on aggregate v Parma FC 1994 AC Milan WON 2-0 on aggregate v Arsenal FC 1995 AFC Ajax WON 5-1 on aggregate v Real Zaragoza 1996 Juventus WON 9-2 on aggregate v Paris Saint-Germain FC 1997 BV Borussia Dortmund lost 3-1 on aggregate v FC Barcelona 1998 Real Madrid CF lost 1-0 v Chelsea FC 1999 Manchester United FC lost 1-0 v S.S. Lazio 2000 Real Madrid CF lost 2-1 v Galatasaray AS 2001 FC Bayern München lost 3-2 v Liverpool FC 2002 Real Madrid CF WON 3-1 v Feyenoord 2003 AC Milan WON 1-0 v FC Porto 34

35 2004 FC Porto lost 2-1 v Valencia CF 2005 Liverpool FC WON 3-1 v PFC CSKA Moskva 2006 FC Barcelona lost 3-0 v Sevilla FC 2007 AC Milan WON 3-1 v Sevilla FC 2008 Manchester United FC lost 2-1 v FC Zenit St. Petersburg 2009 FC Barcelona WON 1-0 v FC Shakhtar Donetsk 2010 FC Internazionale Milano lost 2-0 v Club Atlético de Madrid The same anecdote applies to the European/South American Cup, with AC Milan travelling to Tokyo in place of the first UEFA Champions League winners, Olympique de Marseille - and losing. In 2000, FIFA introduced a pilot Club World Cup played in parallel to the European/ South American Cup and, as from 2005, the two competitions were merged into an event featuring the champion from each of the FIFA Confederations, with Europe s representative entering at the semi-final stage - where they have, thus far, always won. The overall balance has been favourable: 1993 AC Milan lost 3-2 v FC São Paulo (Brazil) 1994 AC Milan lost 2-0 v Vélez Sarsfield (Argentina) 1995 AFC Ajax WON 0-0 (penalties) v Grêmio Porto Alegre (Brazil) 1996 Juventus WON 1-0 v CA River Plate (Argentina) 1997 BV Borussia Dortmund WON 2-0 v SE Cruzeiro (Brazil) 1998 Real Madrid CF WON 2-1 v CR Vasco da Gama (Brazil) 1999 Manchester United FC WON 1-0 v SE Palmeiras (Brazil) 2000 Real Madrid CF lost 2-1 v CA Boca Juniors (Argentina) 2001 FC Bayern München WON 1-0 v CA Boca Juniors (Argentina) 2002 Real Madrid CF WON 2-0 v CA Olimpia (Paraguay) 2003 AC Milan lost 1-1 (penalties) v CA Boca Juniors (Argentina) 2004 FC Porto WON 0-0 (penalties) v CD Once Caldas (Colombia) 2005 Liverpool FC lost 1-0 v FC São Paulo (Brazil) 2006 FC Barcelona lost 1-0 v SC Internacional (Brazil) 2007 AC Milan WON 4-2 v CA Boca Juniors (Argentina) 2008 Manchester United FC WON 1-0 v Liga de Quito (Ecuador) 2009 FC Barcelona WON 2-1 v Estudiantes de la Plata (Argentina) 2010 FC Internazionale Milano WON 3-0 v TP Mazembe Englebert (Congo) The 2011 FIFA Club World Cup will be held in Toyota City and Yokohama from 8 to 18 December. So far, FC Barcelona from Spain (UEFA), Santos FC from Brazil (CONMEBOL), CF Monterrey from Mexico (CONCACAF) and Auckland City FC from New Zeeland (OCF) have qualified. The winners of the African Champions League to represent CAF and the winners of the Asian Champions League to represent AFC will be found on 13 November. 35
