Spanish football is dominating the European football field. For 59 years, in the UEFA Champions League/Cup C1 or just 24 years of the Champions League era, considering the mighty Real Madrid club alone or Spanish football as a whole, they are too strong.

Spanish football power

Real Madrid's number of titles in the Champions League era is equal to the total number of Italian clubs, the second most successful country in the tournament. The history of the Champions League witnessed the 1999-2000 season, when the final was an internal affair of this country.

At the Stade de France, Real Madrid won 3-0 against Valencia at the Stade de France, winning the title for the second time in the last three seasons. The Spaniards did this twice more in 2014 and 2016. To date, only Italian and English football have achieved this feat, in 2003 and 2008.

In the past 24 years, Real Madrid has won 5 Champions League Cups, Barca has also won 4 Cups, if Real Madrid wins Juventus on the night of June 3, this land of bulls will have 10 Champions League Cups. Remember, the English have only won four times, while Germany has only stepped on the highest podium three times. The Spanish are proud that since 2014, all titles in Europe, including the Champions League, Europa League and Super Cup, have belonged to Spain.

That dominance was only broken this season, when Man Utd overcame Celta Vigo, and won the tournament with a 2-0 win over Ajax. Mourinho has made European football less boring for the Spaniards and one hopes 'Max' Allegri and his Juve players can do the same in the Champions League. The European pitch needs to keep the Champions League curse alive, with no champion successfully defending the title.

If counting the UEFA Champions League/Cup C1, this Royal team has been crowned 11 times (out of 58) and was voted by FIFA as the best team of the 20th century. The arch-rival Barca also managed to bring home 5 UEFA Champions League/Cup C1 trophies.

Thus, the number of UEFA Champions League/C1 Cups won by Spain is 16, 4 more than England and Italy, the countries ranked 2nd. Currently, in terms of clubs, in the top 5 clubs leading in the number of championships, Spain has 2, besides Real leading with 11 championships, AC Milan 7 times, Barcelona, ​​Liverpool FC, Bayern Munich all have 5 times.

The mark of C. Ronaldo and Ramos?

Real Madrid and Spanish football have achieved so many titles, in addition to having the best youth training centers in Europe, they have also spent money to buy the world's top stars. In addition to success at the club level, the stars playing in Spain have also set "rare, hard to find" records on the continental and world football fields.

Talking about the upcoming Champions League final, people are expecting two Real Madrid stars, C. Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos, to set a new record. Accordingly, if they score against Juventus, these two players will become the first to score in 3 different Champions League finals.

To date, C. Ronaldo has scored in two Champions League finals in 2008 and 2014. As a central defender, Sergio Ramos also scored for Real Madrid in the finals in 2014 and 2016. In addition, there are three other people who have scored in two different Champions League finals: Raul (2000, 2002), Messi (2009, 2011) and Samuel Eto'o (2006, 2009) but only Messi has the chance to set the record because the other two have retired.

If the 59th UEFA Champions League/Cup C1 final is won by Real Madrid again and one of the two names C. Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos scores, then Europe will once again bow down in salute.
