#2 Real Madrid 4-3 Stade de Reims - 1956
The first ever European Cup final was played out between Real Madrid and Stade de Reims and it was a classic.
It was a roller coaster of a match and the final outcome did not seem certain until the final whistle actually sounded.
The French side stormed to a quick 2-0 lead inside 10 minutes. Madrid bounced back, as ADi Stefano and Hector Rial scored to level the tie at 2-2. Stade de Reims took the lead again through Michel Hidalgo but the Spanis side had the final say.
Marquitos and Rial scored to change the course of the match yet again and their side held on to win the first ever European Cup.
