Champions League Triumphs: Non-Big 5 League Clubs Quiz

European club football has been dominated by teams from the big five leagues for decades. The continental competition began in 1955 and quickly became the sport’s premier club prize. Clubs from England, Spain, Germany and Italy have supplied most winners, with France contributing less often.

When underdogs lifted Europe’s biggest prize

Despite that dominance, several sides from outside the traditional top leagues have won the European Cup. Most of those surprises came in the tournament’s earlier years. In total, ten clubs from outside the English top flight, the Bundesliga, Ligue 1, La Liga and Serie A have claimed the trophy.
