Posted by victorcorreia on May 30, 2011 in Featured, Sport | 0 comments

Last Saturday, F.C. Barcelona won its fourth Champions League trophy, becoming one of the most successful football teams in the XXI Century, considering the titles it won not only in Spain but Worldwide. This event brought to my curiosity to know which are the most successful teams of the Top European football prize and, guess what, Barcelona is not even in the Top 3! For the second time since we started this blog, this particular list (and because the number of teams that won the title the same number of times), will have more than 7 mentions (the first one was the Top 7 Highest Paid TV Artist in a TV Series):
