There were repeat winners all over the place before the introduction of the new UEFA Champions League in 1993. When the competition was known as the European Cup. Real Madrid won the first five competitions in a row. Then Benfica won two (and none since the curse was placed on the Lisbon team).
Will Real Madrid win the Champions League again?
Internazionale won two more after AC Milan won one. In the 1970s, Ajax won three in a row, as did Bayern Munich immediately after the Dutch team. Then, Liverpool and Nottingham Forest took turns). However, after the format was changed in 1992-93, it took a quarter-century for a team to win back-to-back titles:
Real Madrid won three Champions League titles from 2015-16 to 2017-18. (and four of five, including 2013-14). Can the Madridistas repeat in 2023? Real Madrid defeated Liverpool 1-0 to win the 2022 Champions League. He will face the Reds again when Round 16 resumes in February.
