#3 Real Madrid 4-3 Stade de Reims, 13/06/1956
Trending
This was the first - the beginning of the awe-inspiring Real Madrid legend. The first European Championship final... and few have been harder. Within ten minutes they'd gone two down but they soon hit back thanks to goals from Alfredo di Stefano and Hector Rial. All this within the first half
With both clubs trading body blows, Reims restored their lead on the hour mark before Marquitos equalised just after. Then, with, 11 minutes to go, Hector Rial, gave Madrid for the first time - and that was very much that.
"Lifting the European Cup after so many games gave us immense joy," said winger Paco Gento
