The Champions League is celebrating its anniversary: In May 2016, the 60th winner will be crowned. So far, three German clubs, FC Bayern Munich, Hamburger SV, and Borussia Dortmund, have made their mark on the list of champions with a total of seven titles. This book is much more than a chronicle. It describes the most legendary players - from Alfredo di Stefano to Messi, from Eusebio to Mazzola, from Ronaldo to Gerd Müller. It revisits the most spectacular episodes, such as the bottle-throwing incident involving Gladbach or the story of Cologne national player Wolfgang Weber, who played on with a broken fibula until the end of the match. Also unforgettable are the goal explosion in Madrid, the first German-German duel between Bayern and Dresden, the Munich drama against Manchester United, and the legendary final that Liverpool won against Milan after being down 0:3.
