Barça’s win in Monaco on Friday night means that they have taken a record 15 European titles-one more than AC Milan – with 4 Champions League, 3 Fairs Cup, 4 Cup Winners Cup and 4 Super Cup triumphs to their name.
AC Milan are now just behind Barça, with 7 Champions Leagues, 2 Cup Winners Cups and 5 Super Cups,
whilst Madrid (12), Liverpool (11) and Ajax(9) trail them. The last 4 seasons have seen the Club
charge up the table of continental trophy winners , with Pep Guardiola guiding them to 2 Champions
League and 2 Super Cup victories.
Four years of unparalleled success
Indeed, with the victory over Porto, Pep Guardiola has overtaken Johan
Cruyff as the Club’s most successful manager. The Dutchman won 11 titles in 8 seasons, whilst
during the Club’s finest era, Pep has now taken 12 out of the 15 on offer between 2008 and
2011.
One Super Cup behind Milan
Guardiola has been involved in all four Super Cup wins –as a player in 1992 and 1997
and as a manager in 2009 and 2011 and this latest win sees his team draw to within one title of AC
Milan as the team who have won the competition the most times - five.
