Benfica vs Real Madrid History

Benfica first held aloft the famous European Cup trophy in 1961, defeating FC Barcelona in order to win their maiden title. The Portuguese giants retained the crown the following season, defeating a strong Real Madrid side in Amsterdam before losing three finals in relatively quick succession to AC Milan, Inter Milan and Manchester United in 1963, 1965 and 1968, respectively. The Lisbon-based side experienced something of a resurgence two decades later, reaching another European Cup Final in 1987/88, only to end up losing on penalties to underdogs PSV Eindhoven, and two years later, a goal from Frank Rijkaard gave AC Milan a narrow win in the 1989/90 final.

Los Blancos are by some distance the most successful side in the history of UEFA’s top-tier tournament. Their impressive record in the competition began with a bang, with Real Madrid winning each of the first five editions of the competition from the mid-1950s onwards. Further successes came in the 1960s before a thirty-year drought, which ended when the La Liga side defeated Juventus in 1997/98. Zinedine Zidane managed the Santiago Bernabeu side to a hat-trick of titles in succession in 2016, 2017 and 2018, with Cristiano Ronaldo proving key in this era and Carlo Ancelotti completed his first treble of crowns with the Spanish capital side when he led them to success in the 2023/24 final at Wembley Stadium against Borussia Dortmund.

Benfica vs Real Madrid Head-to-Head

These two teams met for the first time in the 1962 European Cup Final in Amsterdam, a game that was nothing short of spectacular. Hungarian legend Ferenc Puskas put Real Madrid ahead early on and doubled their lead on 23 minutes before Benfica pulled a goal back, only for Puskas to complete his first-half hat-trick, leaving Miguel Munoz’s side 3-2 up at the break. Bela Guttman’s Benfica side came out fighting in the second period, and Mario Coluna leveled matters before Eusebio scored twice in five minutes to complete a memorable 5-3 success for As Aguias.
