It brings together the best football clubs from European leagues to compete for the title of the best team in Europe. 🏁 History Founded: 1955 (originally called the European Cup) Renamed: UEFA Champions League in 1992 The original tournament was only for league champions, but today it includes the top teams from each country (for example, 1st–4th places in the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, etc.). 🧩 Format of the Tournament 1. Qualifying Rounds Smaller clubs from lower-ranked European leagues play several knockout rounds in summer to reach the group stage. 2. Group Stage 32 teams divided into 8 groups (A–H), with 4 clubs in each group. Each team plays 6 matches (home and away). The top two teams from each group advance to the Round of 16, while the 3rd place drops into the Europa League. 3.
