It is one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world and the most prestigious club competition in European football, played by the national league champions ( and, for some nations, one or more runners - up ) of the strongest UEFA national associations. The UEFA Champions League final is the most watched annual sporting event worldwide. The final of the 2012 -- 13 tournament had the highest TV ratings to date, drawing 360 million television viewers. Introduced in 1992, the competition replaced the European Champion Clubs ' Cup, or simply European Cup, which had run since 1955, adding a group stage to the competition and allowing multiple entrants from certain countries. The pre-1992 competition was initially a straight knockout tournament open only to the champion club of each country. During the 1990s, the format was expanded, incorporating a round - robin group stage to include clubs that finished runner - up of some nations ' top - level league. While most of Europe 's national leagues can still only enter their national league champion, Europe 's strongest national leagues now provide up to five teams for the competition. Clubs that finish next - in - line in each nation 's top level league, having not qualified for the UEFA Champions League competition, are eligible for the next - level UEFA Europa League competition. In its present format, the UEFA Champions League begins in mid-July with three knockout qualifying rounds and a play - off round. The 10 surviving teams enter the group stage, joining 22 other teams qualified in advance. The 32 teams are drawn into eight groups of four teams and play each other in a double round - robin system. The eight group winners and eight runners - up proceed to the knockout phase that culminates with the final match in May. The winner of the UEFA Champions League qualifies for the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. Real Madrid is the most successful club in the competition 's history, having won the tournament 13 times, including its first five seasons. Spanish clubs have accumulated the highest number of victories ( 18 wins ), followed by England and Italy ( 12 wins apiece ). England has the largest number of different winning teams, with five clubs having won the title. The competition has been won by 22 different clubs, 12 of which have won it more than once. The reigning champions are Real Madrid, who secured their 13th title in the competition after defeating Liverpool 3 -- 1 in the 2018 final. Thus, they became the first team in the UEFA Champions League era to win the title for three years in a row.

The Mitropa Cup, a competition modelled after the Challenge Cup, was created in 1927, an idea of Austrian Hugo Meisl, and played between Central European clubs. In 1930, the Coupe des Nations ( French : Nations Cup ), the first attempt to create a cup for national champion clubs of Europe, was played and organised by Swiss club Servette. Held in Geneva, it brought together ten champions from across the continent. The tournament was won by Újpest of Hungary. Latin European nations came together to form the Latin Cup in 1949. After receiving reports from his journalists over the highly successful Campeonato Sudamericano de Campeones of 1948, Gabriel Hanot, editor of L'Équipe, began proposing the creation of a continent - wide tournament. After Stan Cullis declared Wolverhampton Wanderers `` Champions of the World '' following a successful run of friendlies in the 1950s, in particular a 3 -- 2 friendly victory against Budapest Honvéd, Hanot finally managed to convince UEFA to put into practice such a tournament. It was conceived in Paris in 1955 as the European Champion Clubs ' Cup. 1955 -- 66 : beginnings Barcelona -- Hamburg, 12 April 1961 The first edition of the European Cup took place during the 1955 -- 56 season. Sixteen teams participated : Milan ( Italy ), AGF Aarhus ( Denmark ), Anderlecht ( Belgium ), Djurgården ( Sweden ), Gwardia Warszawa ( Poland ), Hibernian ( Scotland ), Partizan ( Yugoslavia ), PSV Eindhoven ( Netherlands ), Rapid Wien ( Austria ), Real Madrid ( Spain ), Rot - Weiss Essen ( West Germany ), Saarbrücken ( Saar ), Servette ( Switzerland ), Sporting CP ( Portugal ), Stade de Reims ( France ), and Vörös Lobogó ( Hungary ). The first European Cup match took place on 4 September 1955, and ended in a 3 -- 3 draw between Sporting CP and Partizan. The first goal in European Cup history was scored by João Baptista Martins of Sporting CP. The inaugural final took place at the Parc des Princes between Stade de Reims and Real Madrid. The Spanish squad came back from behind to win 4 -- 3 thanks to goals from Alfredo Di Stéfano and Marquitos, as well as two goals from Héctor Rial. Real Madrid successfully defended the trophy next season in their home stadium, the Santiago Bernabéu, against Fiorentina. After a scoreless first half, Real Madrid scored twice in six minutes to defeat the Italians. In 1958, Milan failed to capitalise after going ahead on the scoreline twice, only for Real Madrid to equalise. The final held in Heysel Stadium went to extra time where Francisco Gento scored the game - winning goal to allow Real Madrid to retain the title for the third consecutive season. In a rematch of the first final, Real Madrid faced Stade Reims at the Neckarstadion for the 1958 -- 59 season final, easily winning 2 -- 0. West German side Eintracht Frankfurt became the first non-Latin team to reach the European Cup final. The 1959 -- 60 season finale still holds the record for the most goals scored, but the record is overshadowed by the 7 -- 3 thrashing Eintracht Frankfurt received in Hampden Park, courtesy of four goals by Ferenc Puskás and a hat - trick by Alfredo Di Stéfano. This was Real Madrid 's fifth consecutive title, a record that still stands today. Los Merengues reign ended in the 1960 -- 61 season when bitter rivals Barcelona dethroned them in the first round. Barcelona themselves, however, would be defeated in the final by Portuguese side Benfica 3 -- 2 at Wankdorf Stadium. Reinforced by Eusébio, Benfica defeated Real Madrid 5 -- 3 at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam and kept the title for a second, consecutive season. Benfica wanted to repeat Real Madrid 's successful run of the 1950s after reaching the showpiece event of the 1962 -- 63 European Cup, but a brace from Brazilian - Italian José Altafini at the Wembley Stadium gave the spoils to Milan, making the trophy leave the Iberian Peninsula for the first time ever. Internazionale beat an ageing - Real Madrid 3 -- 1 in the Ernst - Happel - Stadion to win the 1963 -- 64 season and replicate their local - rival 's success. The title stayed in the city of Milan for the third year in a row after Inter beat Benfica 1 -- 0 at their home ground, the San Siro. Anthem Main article : UEFA Champions League Anthem The UEFA Champions League anthem, officially titled simply as `` Champions League '', was written by Tony Britten, and is an adaptation of George Frideric Handel 's Zadok the Priest ( one of his Coronation Anthems ). UEFA commissioned Britten in 1992 to arrange an anthem, and the piece was performed by London 's Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and sung by the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. The chorus contains the three official languages used by UEFA : English, German, and French. The anthem 's chorus is played before each UEFA Champions League game, as well as at the beginning and end of television broadcasts of the matches. The complete anthem is about three minutes long, and has two short verses and the chorus. For the 2009 UEFA Champions League Final in Rome, tenor Andrea Bocelli sang backing lyrics to the Champions League anthem, whilst similarly Juan Diego Flórez provided the tenor for the 2010 UEFA Champions League Final. Girl band All Angels performed at the 2011 UEFA Champions League Final. Jonas Kaufmann provided the tenor for 2012 UEFA Champions League Final, whilst David Garrett performed with his violin. The anthem has never been released commercially in its original version. Branding In 1991, UEFA asked its commercial partner, Television Event and Media Marketing ( TEAM ), to help `` brand '' the Champions League. This resulted in the anthem, `` house colours '' of black and white or silver and a logo, and the `` starball ''. The starball was created by Design Bridge, a London - based firm selected by TEAM after a competition. TEAM gives particular attention to detail in how the colours and starball are depicted at matches. According to TEAM, `` Irrespective of whether you are a spectator in Moscow or Milan, you will always see the same stadium dressing materials, the same opening ceremony featuring the ' starball ' centre circle ceremony, and hear the same UEFA Champions League Anthem ''. Based on research it conducted, TEAM concluded that by 1999, `` the starball logo had achieved a recognition rate of 94 percent among fans ''. Format Qualification See also : UEFA coefficient Map of UEFA countries whose teams reached the group stage of the UEFA Champions League UEFA member country that has been represented in the group stage UEFA member country that has not been represented in the group stage Since 2009 -- 10 season, the UEFA Champions League begins with a double round - robin group stage of 32 teams, which is preceded by two qualification ' streams ' for teams that do not receive direct entry to the tournament proper. The two streams are divided between teams qualified by virtue of being league champions, and those qualified by virtue of finishing 2nd -- 4th in their national championship. The number of teams that each association enters into the UEFA Champions League is based upon the UEFA coefficients of the member associations. These coefficients are generated by the results of clubs representing each association during the previous five Champions League and UEFA Europa League / UEFA Cup seasons. The higher an association 's coefficient, the more teams represent the association in the Champions League, and the fewer qualification rounds the association 's teams must compete in. Five of the remaining ten qualifying places are granted to the winners of a four - round qualifying tournament between the remaining 40 or 39 national champions, within which those champions from associations with higher coefficients receive byes to later rounds. The other five are granted to the winners of a two - round qualifying tournament between the 15 clubs from the associations ranked 1 through 15, which have qualified based upon finishing second, third, or fourth in their respective national league. In addition to sporting criteria, any club must be licensed by its national association to participate in the Champions League. To obtain a license, the club must meet certain stadium, infrastructure, and finance requirements. In 2005 -- 06 season, Liverpool and Artmedia Bratislava became the first teams to reach the Champions League group stage after playing in all three qualifying rounds. In 2008 -- 09 season, both BATE Borisov and Anorthosis Famagusta achieved the same feat. Real Madrid holds the record for the most consecutive appearances in the group stage, having qualified 21 times in a row ( 1997 -- present ). They are followed by Arsenal on 19 ( 1998 -- 2016 ) and Manchester United on 18 ( 1996 -- 2013 ). Between 2003 and 2008, no differentiation was made between champions and non-champions in qualification. The 16 top ranked teams spread across the biggest domestic leagues qualified directly for the tournament group stage. Prior to this, three preliminary knockout qualifying rounds whittled down the remaining teams, with different teams starting in different rounds. An exception to the usual European qualification system happened in 2005, after Liverpool won the Champions League the year before, but did not finish in a Champions League qualification place in the Premier League that season. UEFA gave special dispensation for Liverpool to enter the Champions League, giving England five qualifiers. UEFA subsequently ruled that the defending champions qualify for the competition the following year regardless of their domestic league placing. However, for those leagues with four entrants in the Champions League, this meant that, if the Champions League winner fell outside of its domestic league 's top four, it would qualify at the expense of the fourth - placed team in the league. Until 2015 -- 16, no association could have more than four entrants in the Champions League. In May 2012, Tottenham Hotspur finished fourth in the 2011 -- 12 Premier League, two places ahead of Chelsea, but failed to qualify for the 2012 -- 13 Champions League, after Chelsea won the 2012 final. Tottenham were demoted to the 2012 -- 13 UEFA Europa League. In May 2013, it was decided that, starting from the 2015 -- 16 season ( and continuing at least for the three - year cycle until the 2017 -- 18 season ), the winners of the previous season 's UEFA Europa League would qualify for the UEFA Champions League, entering at least the play - off round, and entering the group stage if the berth reserved for the Champions League title holders was not used. The previous limit of a maximum of four teams per association was increased from four to five, meaning that a fourth - placed team from one of the top three ranked associations would only have to be moved to the Europa League if both the Champions League and Europa League winners came from that association and both finished outside the top four of their domestic league. The top three leagues in Europe are allowed to enter four teams into the Champions League. Michel Platini, the UEFA president, had proposed taking one place from the top three leagues and allocating it to that nation 's cup winners. This proposal was rejected in a vote at a UEFA Strategy Council meeting. In the same meeting, however, it was agreed that the third - placed team in the top three leagues would receive automatic qualification for the group stage, rather than entry into the third qualifying round, while the fourth - placed team would enter the play - off round for non-champions, guaranteeing an opponent from one of the top 15 leagues in Europe. This was part of Platini 's plan to increase the number of teams qualifying directly into the group stage, while simultaneously increasing the number of teams from lower - ranked nations in the group stage. In 2012, Arsène Wenger referred to qualifying for the Champion 's League by finishing in the top four places in the English Premier League as the `` 4th Place Trophy ''. The phrase was coined after a pre-match conference when he was questioned about Arsenal 's lack of a trophy after exiting the FA Cup. He said `` The first trophy is to finish in the top four ''. At Arsenal 's 2012 AGM, Wenger was also quoted as saying : `` For me there are five trophies every season : Premier League, Champions League, the third is to qualify for the Champions League... '' Tournament The tournament proper begins with a group stage of 32 teams, divided into eight groups. Seeding is used whilst making the draw for this stage, whilst teams from the same country may not be drawn into groups together. Each team meets the others in its group home and away in a round - robin format. The winning team and the runners - up from each group then progress to the next round. The third - placed team enters the UEFA Europa League. For this stage, the winning team from one group plays against the runners - up from another group, and teams from the same association may not be drawn against each other. From the quarter - finals onwards, the draw is entirely random, without association protection. The tournament uses the away goals rule : if the aggregate score of the two games is tied, then the team who scored more goals at their opponent 's stadium advances. The group stage is played from September to December, whilst the knock - out stage starts in February. The knock - out ties are played in a two - legged format, with the exception of the final. This is typically held in the final two weeks of May. Default distribution ( from 2015 -- 16 ) Starting with the 2015 -- 16 edition, the holders of the UEFA Europa League enter the Champions League, initially at the playoff round. The maximum number of teams that an association can field in the tournament has also been increased from four to five. Teams entering in this round Teams advancing from previous round First qualifying round ( 8 teams ) 8 champions from associations 47 -- 54 Second qualifying round ( 34 teams ) 30 champions from associations 16 -- 46 ( except Liechtenstein ) 4 winners from the first qualifying round Third qualifying round Champions ( 20 teams ) 3 champions from associations 13 -- 15 17 winners from the second qualifying round Non-champions ( 10 teams ) 9 runners - up from associations 7 -- 15 1 third - placed team from association 6 Play - off round Champions ( 10 teams ) 10 winners from the third qualifying round for champions Non-champions ( 10 teams ) 2 third - placed teams from associations 4 -- 5 3 fourth - placed teams from associations 1 -- 3 UEFA Europa League holders 5 winners from the third qualifying round for non-champions Group stage ( 32 teams ) 12 champions from associations 1 -- 12 6 runners - up from associations 1 -- 6 3 third - placed teams from associations 1 -- 3 UEFA Champions League holders 5 winners from the play - off round for champions 5 winners from the play - off round for non-champions Knockout phase ( 16 teams ) 8 group winners from the group stage 8 group runners - up from the group stage ^ UEL : The Europa League holders may be promoted into the group stage if the Champions League holders qualify for the group stage through their domestic league. If the Champions League holders comes from an association ranked thirteenth or lower and they did not qualify for the non-champions route based on their domestic performance, the Europa League holders will enter the play - off round for champions instead. The access list is adjusted accordingly to ensure a maximum of ten teams in each stream 's play - off round. ^ UCL : If both the Champions League and Europa League holders are from the same association ranked 1st -- 3rd and neither qualify for the Champions League through their domestic league, the fourth - placed team qualifies for the Europa League instead. Future distribution ( from 2018 -- 19 ) In August 2016, UEFA announced changes in the access list of the tournament, driven to avoid the creation of European Super League. The top four clubs from the four top - ranked national associations will receive guaranteed qualification automatically for the group stage. The Europa League holders also will automatically qualify for the group stage. However, the plan passed by UEFA caused outrage among smaller associations. After his election as the new UEFA president, Aleksander Čeferin said that he would review the new system. In December 2016, UEFA confirmed the plan will go on. Referees Ranking The UEFA Refereeing Unit is broken down into five experience - based categories. A referee is initially placed into Category 4 with the exception of referees from France, Germany, England, Italy, or Spain. Referees from these five countries are typically comfortable with top professional matches and are therefore directly placed into Category 3. Each referee 's performance is observed and evaluated after every match ; his category may be revised twice per season, but a referee can not be promoted directly from Category 3 to the Elite Category. Appointment In co-operation with the UEFA Refereeing Unit, the UEFA Referee Committee is responsible for appointing referees to matches. Referees are appointed based on previous matches, marks, performances, and fitness levels. To discourage bias, the Champions League takes nationality into account. No referee may be of the same origins as any club in his or her respecting groups. Referee appointments, suggested by the UEFA Refereeing Unit, are sent to the UEFA Referee Committee to be discussed and / or revised. After a consensus is made, the name of the appointed referee remains confidential up to two days before the match for the purpose of minimising public influence. Limitations Since 1990, a UEFA international referee can not exceed the age of 45 years. After turning 45, a referee must step down at the end of his season. The age limit was established to ensure an elite level of fitness. Today, UEFA Champions League referees are required to pass a fitness test even to be considered at the international level. Prizes Trophy and medals Main article : European Champion Clubs ' Cup Official trophy Each year, the winning team is presented with the European Champion Clubs ' Cup, the current version of which has been awarded since 1967. Any team that wins the Champions League three years in a row or five times overall wins the right to retain a full - sized replica of the trophy ( UEFA retains the original at all times ). Six clubs have earned this honour : Real Madrid, Ajax, Bayern Munich, Milan, Liverpool and Barcelona. Since then instead the club which wins three years in a row or five overall receives a conmemorative badge to wear permanently on their uniform. The current trophy is 74 cm ( 29 in ) tall and made of silver, weighing 11 kg ( 24 lb ). It was designed by Jörg Stadelmann, a jeweller from Bern, Switzerland, after the original was given to Real Madrid in 1966 in recognition of their six titles to date, and cost 10,000 Swiss francs. As of the 2012 -- 13 season, 40 gold medals are presented to the Champions League winners, and 40 silver medals to the runners - up. Prize money As of 2018 -- 19, the fixed amount of prize money paid to the clubs is as follows : Preliminary qualifying round : € 230,000 First qualifying round : € 280,000 Second qualifying round : € 380,000 Third qualifying round : € 480,000 ( Only for clubs eliminated from the champions path, since clubs eliminated from the league path qualify directly for the UEFA Europa League group stage and therefore benefit from its distribution system. ) Base fee for group stage : € 15,250,000 Group match victory : € 2,700,000 Group match draw : € 900,000 Round of 16 : € 9,500,000 Quarter - finals : € 10,500,000 Semi-finals : € 12, 00,000 Losing finalist : € 15,000,000 Winning the Final : € 19,000,000 This means that at best, a club can earn € 82,450,000 of prize money under this structure, not counting shares of the qualifying rounds, play - off round and / or the market pool. A large part of the distributed revenue from the UEFA Champions League is linked to the `` market pool '', the distribution of which is determined by the value of the television market in each country. For the 2014 -- 15 season, Juventus, who were the runners - up, earned nearly € 89.1 million in total, of which € 30.9 million was prize money, compared with the € 61.0 million earned by Barcelona, who won the tournament and were awarded € 36.4 million in prize money. Sponsorship Like the FIFA World Cup, the UEFA Champions League is sponsored by a group of multinational corporations, in contrast to the single main sponsor typically found in national top - flight leagues. When the Champions League was created in 1992, it was decided that a maximum of eight companies should be allowed to sponsor the event, with each corporation being allocated four advertising boards around the perimeter of the pitch, as well as logo placement at pre - and post-match interviews and a certain number of tickets to each match. This, combined with a deal to ensure tournament sponsors were given priority on television advertisements during matches, ensured that each of the tournament 's main sponsors was given maximum exposure. From the 2012 -- 13 knockout phase, UEFA used LED advertising hoardings installed in knock - out participant stadiums, including the final stage. From the 2015 -- 16 season onwards, UEFA has used such hoardings from the play - off round until the final. The competition 's logo is displayed in the centre of the pitch before every Champions League match. Betting advertisements are banned in Turkey. On 9 April 2013, Real Madrid ( whose shirt sponsors were bwin at the time ) were forced to wear sponsor - free jerseys while playing against Galatasaray in Istanbul. The tournament 's current main sponsors are : Banco Santander Gazprom Heineken MasterCard Nissan PepsiCo Sony Interactive Entertainment Adidas is a secondary sponsor and supplies the official match ball, the Adidas Finale, and referee uniform. Hublot is also a secondary sponsor as the official fourth official board of the competition. Individual clubs may wear jerseys with advertising. However, only one sponsorship is permitted per jersey in addition to that of the kit manufacturer. Exceptions are made for non-profit organisations, which can feature on the front of the shirt, incorporated with the main sponsor or in place of it ; or on the back, either below the squad number or on the collar area. If clubs play a match in a country where the relevant sponsorship category is restricted ( such as France 's alcohol advertising restriction ), then they must remove that logo from their jerseys. For example, when Rangers played French sides Auxerre and Strasbourg in the 1996 -- 97 Champions League and the UEFA Cup, respectively, Rangers players wore the logo of Center Parcs instead of McEwan 's Lager ( both companies at the time were subsidiaries of Scottish & Newcastle ). Media coverage Main article : List of UEFA Champions League broadcasters The competition attracts an extensive television audience, not just in Europe, but throughout the world. The final of the tournament has been, in recent years, the most - watched annual sporting event in the world. The 2013 final was the most watched final to date, drawing 360 million television viewers.
