Borussia Dortmund have had an impressive record in both the European Cup and the UEFA Champions League. They enjoyed three campaigns in the former guise prior to the competition’s rebranding, and these came in 1956/57, 1957/58, and 1963/64; on the latter two occasions, Die Borussen secured Quarter-Final and Semi-Final finishes.

In the UEFA Champions League era, the Bundesliga side won the tournament in only their second adventure, beating Manchester United on the way to their final against Juventus in Bern, Switzerland.

A brace from Karl-Heinz Riedle and a third from substitute Lars Ricken gave Ottmar Hitzfeld’s side an impressive 3-1 win over Juventus.

They reached the Semi-Finals the following season before losing to Real Madrid, and in 2012/13, they reached their second top-tier final, only to lose to arch-rivals Bayern Munich.

It took a very late winner from Dutch international winger Arjen Robben to net Bayern Munich a 2-1 win over Jurgen Klopp’s side at Wembley Stadium, a loss that must have been hard for the club’s faithful fans to take.

When it comes to success in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League, clearly, no one comes close to what Real Madrid have achieved. Los Blancos won each of the first five editions of the European Cup, thanks in a big way to the efforts of attacker Alfredo Di Stefano and Ferenc Puskas, as well as Spanish star Paco Gento, who went on to win six titles himself.

Incredibly, the Spanish capital side reached the final in eight of the first ten European Cup tournaments.

Their sixth title, in 1965/66, would be their last for over 30 years, with their 1998 win over Juventus, under German boss Jupp Heyneckes a welcome relief for fans of the club.

Wins in 2000 and 2002 followed before another drought of sorts occurred.

Their next era of domination, very much fueled by the excellence of Cristiano Ronaldo, saw the La Liga side win four titles in five years, the final three coming in successive seasons under Zinedine Zidane.

Those wins over Atletico Madrid (twice), Juventus, and Liverpool made Real Madrid the best team in the world, bar none.

Their two wins over local rivals Atletico were a touch on the fortunate side. In their first meeting, it took a 93rd-minute Sergio Ramos goal to prevent a loss in normal time, leading to an extra-time win. In their second clash, it was penalties that saw them through.

More convincing were their wins over Juventus and Liverpool. Against the Italian side, Cristiano Ronaldo netted twice while other efforts from Casemiro and Marco Asensio completed a 4-1 triumph.

Against Liverpool, the Anfield side lost Mohamed Salah early through injury, and then a clanger from keeper Loris Karius gave Real Madrid the upper hand, Gareth Bale scoring twice in a comprehensive 3-1 win, one goal being an absolutely sublime overhead kick from the Welshman.

In 2022, with Carlo Ancelotti back in charge, Real Madrid won their 14th title, double that of any other club, when they once again beat Liverpool, this time thanks to a Vinicius Junior goal.

Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid Head-to-Head

These two European behemoths have played each other on a number of occasions, the first meeting coming in 1997/98 when Real Madrid beat Borussia Dortmund in the Semi-Finals 2-0 on aggregate prior to their UEFA Champions League Final win over Juventus.

In 2012/13, it was Borussia Dortmund who got the upper hand, defeating Real Madrid 4-3 in the Semi-Finals, with Robert Lewandowski scoring four goals in the first leg.

The following season Real Madrid defeated their German opponents in the Quarter-Finals, winning 3-2 on aggregate.

The two teams were drawn in the UEFA Champions League group stage in both 2016/17 and 2017/18, with Real Madrid winning two of those four fixtures and the other two ending in high-scoring draws.

Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid Connections

A number of big stars have played for both teams, including Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi, German centre-back Christoph Metzelder, and Brazilian attacking midfielder Reinier Jesus.

The most prominent player to play for both teams is England international Jude Bellingham, who left Borussia Dortmund to join Real Madrid in a massive money deal in the summer of 2023.

The former Birmingham City man greatly impressed over the course of his three seasons in Germany, making 132 appearances and scoring 24 goals before Real Madrid forked out big money to bring the attacking midfielder to the Santiago Bernabeu.
