On 8 September 1955, Real Madrid played its first ever game in the European Cup. In the inaugural edition of the tournament, our team got underway with a  0-2 win over Servette in Geneva. Miguel Muñoz wrote his name into the history books as the madridistas' first European Cup goalscorer, before Rial made sure of the result for the team coached by Villalonga.

Real Madrid's legendary status in the competition began that season, when they won the trophy after defeating Milan, Servette, and Partizan on their way to the final. In the final game, our team defeated Stade de Reims in Paris, securing their place in the tournament's history.

With 14 titles after 67 years, Real Madrid is the most successful team in European Cup history. They also have the highest numbers of victories (278), games played (465), and goals scored (1,024). Iker Casillas has made the most appearances (152) out of any other Madridista, while Cristiano Ronaldo leads the team in goals scored (105), according to individual records.
