Champions League 5th/6th May

I wonder if we will hear much about 30th anniversary of heysel with juventus getting there.

doubt it, but interestingly, since the European Cup started, for every decade apart from 1975, an Italian club has been in the final when the year ends in 5.

1965-Inter 1-0 Benfica.
1985-Heysel-Juventus 1-0 Liverpool.
1995-Ajax 1-0 AC Milan.
2005-AC Milan 3-3 Liverpool.
2015-Barcelona v Juventus.

Their record only broken in 1975, when Lazio were banned from taking part so Italy had no representation, so it was impossible for them to keep the run going.

Put your money on an Italian team in the 2025 final.
