A 5-1 victory over Atletico Madrid in Rotterdam which, of course, featured a brace from the great Jimmy Greaves saw the trophy come back to North London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was the first of a record eight wins for English clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-west-ham-1965-european-cup-winners-cup\">West Ham \u2013 1965 European Cup Winners\u2019 Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spurs stayed up on the final day at the expense of the Irons by a margin of two points, and there was two years between their Cup Winners\u2019 Cup successes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inarguably West Ham\u2019s best-ever side, Bobby Moore lifted the trophy at Wembley after a 2-0 win over 1860 Munich. 12 months later, it was the World Cup with Geoff Hurst famously hitting a hat-trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">58 years later, it was the Conference League. And now, it\u2019s the Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-manchester-united-1968-european-cup\">Manchester United \u2013 1968 European Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">United were the first English side to enter European competition after Sir Matt Busby defied the FA in 1956.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the cusp of glory, tragedy struck the club\u2019s first great side two years later in the Munich Air Disaster. From the ashes, United somehow rose again to scale the highest of heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">10 years on from their darkest day, Busby and captain Bobby Charlton \u2013 survivors of the plane crash \u2013 as well as the incomparable George Best helped United become the first English side to lift the European Cup. One of football\u2019s greatest stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-manchester-city-1970-european-cup-winners-cup\">Manchester City \u2013 1970 European Cup Winners\u2019 Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">City followed on from their Manchester rivals to be the fourth English club in Europe and the third in a competition that didn\u2019t see the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It came with a win in Vienna over Polish side Gornik Zabrze, rather fittingly sealed with a Franny Lee penalty, and added to the League Cup won earlier in the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">53 years later, a very different City won their next European trophy and the one their Abu Dhabi ownership craved most \u2013 the Champions League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chelsea-1971-european-cup-winners-cup\">Chelsea \u2013 1971 European Cup Winners\u2019 Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Blues are the only club in history to win all four of the European trophies included in this list. Bar the Conference League, they have won each of them twice too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their first continental success came in 1971, a year on from lifting the FA Cup. Holders City were beaten in an all-English semi-final before Real Madrid were famously beaten in Piraeus, Greece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1998, Gianfranco Zola sealed a second Cup Winners\u2019 Cup for the club and soon everything changed in West London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-liverpool-1973-uefa-cup\">Liverpool \u2013 1973 UEFA Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Easily, England\u2019s most successful club, it is slightly surprising five sides won in Europe before Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was also only the second-ever UEFA Cup season after it replaced the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Spurs won the first and the Reds the second, with Kevin Keegan\u2019s brace helping them past Borussia Monchengladbach in a two-leg final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It kickstarted a golden era for the club with another UEFA Cup following in 1976 before four European Cups were lifted in the eight years after &#8211; their first coming against the same German side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-european-trophies-won-by-english-clubs\">European trophies won by English clubs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Club<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Number of European trophies<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Liverpool <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">9<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chelsea <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Manchester United<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tottenham <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nottingham Forest<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Manchester City <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Aston Villa <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>West Ham <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Everton <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Arsenal <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ipswich <\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-nottingham-forest-1979-european-cup\">Nottingham Forest \u2013 1979 European Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"773\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-1024x773.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1451131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-1024x773.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-768x579.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-1536x1159.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-2048x1545.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-354x267.jpg 354w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-265x200.jpg 265w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/05\/25154337\/2MGF61C-98x74.jpg 98w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nottingham Forest&#8217;s John Robertson, left, Ian Bowyer, center, and Kenny Burns, right, carry the European Cup in triumph after their 1-0 win against Malmo FF in Munich, Germany.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">England dominated the European Cup in the late-1970s and early-1980s but no success was quite as remarkable as Brian Clough and Forest\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It started when the Reds became the fifth and final team to win the old Division One title directly after promotion to the top-flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their first foray into Europe saw them face two-time holders Liverpool in the first-ever all-English European Cup tie in the first round. They were beaten as were Malmo in the final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If that wasn\u2019t enough, Forest retained the trophy a year later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ipswich-1981-uefa-cup\">Ipswich \u2013 1981 UEFA Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Tractors Boy might just be looking to stay in the top-flight these days after their latest promotion but at one point, they were a genuine force both home and abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sir Alf Ramsey led them into the European Cup in 1962 and it was another future knight of the realm, Sir Bobby Robson, who oversaw their UEFA Cup success just under two decades later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It came in thrilling style with a 5-4 win over AZ Alkmaar over two legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aston-villa-1982-european-cup\">Aston Villa \u2013 1982 European Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Villa are England\u2019s latest European champions after lifting the Europa League last week in dominant fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">44 years earlier, they claimed the biggest trophy of them all, beating Bayern Munich in Rotterdam with Peter Withe scored the most famous goal in the club\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unai Emery\u2019s men will be back in the Champions League next season.

The Toffees won the league title, finishing 13 points clear of Liverpool, and their only European trophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">University College Dublin \u2013 a student team \u2013 put up a better fight than anyone, almost pulling off one of the biggest shocks ever in the first round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bayern Munich and Rotterdam again featured with the Bundesliga giants beaten in the semi-final before a 3-1 victory over Rapid Vienna in the Dutch city. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was the final English winner of a European trophy for 14 years following the Heysel stadium disaster, the subsequent ban and the fallow decade that followed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-arsenal-1994-european-cup-winners-cup\">Arsenal \u2013 1994 European Cup Winners\u2019 Cup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">England\u2019s most recent first-time European winners might also become their latest if they can topple PSG in Budapest on Saturday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For all their domestic success \u2013 14 league titles and a record 14 FA Cups, Arsenal have a very poor European record, made all the more odd given Arsene Wenger\u2019s style and method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their only win came two years before the Frenchman arrived and typically for the era, it ended 1-0. Alan Smith was the match-winner as Parma were beaten in Copenhagen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having ended their 22-year wait for the Premier League title, can the Gunners claim their first-ever Champions League title?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That can wait until the weekend.
