Dissecting the 'UEFA Badge of honour': taking a look at the 7 clubs who have won it.

#1 Real Madrid CF

Real Madrid CF have won 13 Champions League titles

Real Madrid FC is one of the founding members of the European Cup. The club won the first five editions of the tournament between 1955 and 1960. In doing so, they successfully met both the criteria for claiming the 'Uefa Badge of Honour'.

They won their sixth title in 1998. After that, they had to wait for 32 years until they landed their seventh trophy by beating Juventus 1-0 in the final. They won their eighth and ninth titles in 2000 and 2002 respectively.

In the 2014 Champions League Final, Real defeated Atletico Madrid 4-1 and won La Decima, their tenth European crown.

In doing so, they would become the first and the only team to achieve this feat. In 2016, they would again beat Atletico Madrid to lift their eleventh title. In 2017, they won their twelfth title in scintillating fashion as they thrashed Juventus FC 4-1 in the final; thereby becoming the first club to retain the trophy in its current format.

However, they were not done yet. In 2018, they would again overcome a top side in the form of Liverpool to win their third consecutive and a thirteenth European trophy overall.
