Liverpool vs Real Madrid History
Liverpool have enjoyed a glittering history in UEFA’s showpiece tournament, with crowns secured in both the European Cup era and after its Champions League rebrand. In 1977, Bob Paisley’s side beat Borussia Monchengladbach to lift the trophy for the first time, and the following season, a Kenny Dalglish goal gave them back-to-back successes, as Club Brugge were tamed.
In 1981 and 1984, they won again but then had to wait over twenty years to succeed again. That run ended with Rafa Benitez’s side’s incredible comeback against AC Milan in Istanbul, the Merseyside outfit winning on penalties after a fantastic 3-3 draw. In 2019, Jurgen Klopp made it a sixth, his team beating Tottenham in the Champions League Final.
Despite the success of Liverpool, Real Madrid’s record in Europe is unrivalled. Los Blancos won the first five editions of the European Cup, thanks chiefly to the efforts of Alfredo Di Stefano, Ferenc Puskas and Paco Gento. However, the Spanish side haven’t always had it all their own way. Indeed, between 1966 and 1997, they didn’t win the competition once but soon made up for lost time. From 2014 to 2024, the La Liga side picked up another six crowns, with Zinedine Zidane and Carlo Ancelotti sharing the honours as Real Madrid boss.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid Head-to-Head
These two teams have a lot of history when it comes to competitive European action. The clubs have fought three European Cup/Champions League Finals, the first of which came in 1981 when Alan Kennedy scored a late winner for Liverpool in Paris.
In 2018, the clubs faced off in Kyiv, and the score was 1-1 when Welsh wizard Gareth Bale came on. He proceeded to net twice, including an amazing overhead kick, to give Zidane’s side the victory. Four years later a solitary goal from Vinicius Junior gave Los Blancos a win, as goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was deservedly named player of the match award for his performance at the Stade de France in Paris.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid Mutual Connections
A number of star players have played for both teams, including England pair Michael Owen and Steve McManaman and Spanish international duo Fernando Morientes and Alvaro Arbeloa.
Perhaps the player to have had the biggest impact on the two sides would have to be Xabi Alonso. The creative midfielder was an instant cult hero at Anfield and was a huge success over the course of his five seasons in England, making 210 appearances and scoring 19 goals. He then moved to the Santiago Bernabeu in 2009 and racked up 236 appearances, scoring six goals. He picked up UEFA Champions League wins with both clubs.
