Football has often been referred to as ‘The Beautiful Game' and what better way to appreciate the aesthetics of it than by watching the Champions League Final. The UEFA Champions League tournament, started in 1955, is an annual association football cup competition for the top football clubs in Europe. Each year, Europe's strongest national leagues provide up to four teams each for the competition.
The tournament consists of several stages. In the present format it begins in mid-July with three knockout qualifying rounds. The 16 surviving teams join 16 seeded teams in the group stage, in which there are eight groups consisting of four teams each. The eight group winners and eight runners-up enter the final knockout phase, which ends with the final match in May.
The matches are broadcast in over 70 countries in more than 40 languages each year, and some important matches can attract over 200 million TV audience. Actually attending a Champions League Final would be an unforgettable experience, as it pits the best football players from around the world against each other in the ultimate showdown.
