Ajax were looking to emulate the great Real Madrid side of the 50s by winning multiple European cup finals. They were still marshalled amiably by the brilliant Johan Cruyff.

Benfica were looking to be the side that would take over the mantle of Real Madrid. Find out if they succeeded in doing so.

Celtic got to their second cup final and they came across a side that was qualifying for their 1st cup final in Feyenoord. Celtic were overwhelming favourites for the final in Milan which was a very different scenario 3 years ago when they were massive underdogs but like 3 years ago, the favourites lost.

The Catenaccio era was upon us and Inter Milan were the greatest exponent of it. You can find out how they got on and also if Real Madrid were able to recapture past glory.

Celtic became the first British side to qualify for the final and standing in their way were the kings of Catenaccio, Inter Milan. For the first time in the competition’s history, a British side got to the final and Celtic had the honour of being the first British side to win it.

The English media seems to almost always state Italian footballers and their way of playing football. They always seem to want to downplay how good or how far their teams would go.

What a year it was for Italian football. The proverbial, “you cannot write this script” could not have been more apt to describe the way the season panned out. Italy had just won the world cup and the whole nation was in a state of euphoria, but it would not be Italy, without a bit of drama. But it was not just a bit of drama, it was a lot of drama.

Much was expected of Chelsea last season as they had added to their already impressive squad, the likes of Andrei Shevchenko, Michael Ballack and Ashley Cole, all, world class performers. They unfortunately let go of players like Damien Duff, Robert Huth and most especially William Gallas.
