Manchester City vs Benfica History

Manchester City first competed in the European Cup in 1968/69, but their involvement was brief, the Citizens suffering a First Round exit at the hands of Fenerbahce. It would take more than forty years for the club to return to the tournament, with Roberto Mancini leading the big-spending side to their first UEFA Champions League campaign in 2011/12. Under Pep Guardiola, runs to the latter stages of the tournament were like clockwork, with the Etihad Stadium side finally winning the competition in 2023 when Spanish midfielder Rodri netted the winner against Inter Milan.

As Aguias have a rich history in UEFA competition, winning in both 1961 and 1962, beating FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively, in those European Cup Finals. They have also suffered repeated defeats at the final hurdle over the years. In the 1960s alone they lost three, to AC Milan, Inter Milan and Manchester United. This dominant period was greatly aided by their prolific forward, Eusebio, who was a veritable goal machine in the tournament. Benfica also lost European Cup Final matches in 1988 and 1990, against PSV Eindhoven and once again versus AC Milan.
