Benfica vs FC Barcelona History

During the 1960s, Benfica were arguably one of the biggest teams in Europe and their record of appearing in five European Cup Finals in the decade is a testament to that, albeit they managed to lose three of those. They did manage to secure titles in both 1960/61 and 1961/62, against FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively. Another period of relative dominance came in the late 1980s and early 90s, when they reached two more European Cup Finals, somehow losing both, first to PSV Eindhoven on penalties and then to AC Milan, thanks to a goal from Dutch midfielder Frank Rijkaard.

FC Barcelona first lifted the European Cup in 1992, with Ronald Koeman’s long-range effort earning the Catalan giants a win over Sampdoria. In 2006, it was Arsenal who were defeated in the UEFA Champions League Final in Paris and another Premier League side, Manchester United, were then summarily picked apart by Pep Guardiola’s wonderful side in both 2009 and 2011 before Luis Enrique led the La Liga side to a fifth title, defeating Juventus with relative ease.
