Fancy a Champions League quiz?
Our two finalists are confirmed for Budapest's Champions League final – but they only have the one trophy between them. Neither side so much as reached a final in the 20th Century, yet both are inarguably the best two sides on Earth right now (for very different reasons).
It's proof of the changing tides of the European game: superpowers establish dynasties, which then fall and make way for new ones. So our question to you in today's quiz is to name every single one of the 43 clubs that have gotten to the final two in this competition in just 10 minutes.

So your memory's pretty good when it comes to navigating the tactical nuances of Europe’s elite. It’s one thing to remember the winners and losers, but let's see if you can recall the specific lineups, as we present a fresh selection of challenges that range from high-stakes continental finals to the historical map of the English professional game, powered, as ever, by Kwizly.
We’re starting with a trip down memory lane to revisit some of the most frustrating nights for two modern giants. We want you to see if you can recall the superstars who fell at the final hurdle by naming the Paris Saint-Germain XI that lost the 2020 Champions League final, before switching the focus to a pivotal European clash in North London: can you name the Arsenal XI that faced Atletico Madrid in 2018? But have exorcised these demons just this week.
Once you’ve mourned the nearly-men, it’s time to pay tribute to the clubs that fought their way up the pyramid and the cathedrals that hosted them. We’re asking you to demonstrate your respect for the climb by naming every club to have ever won the English second tier, then challenging your spatial memory to see if you can name every Premier League ground ever. From the mud-caked glory of the old Second Division to the high-tech arenas of the modern era, let’s see if your geographical and historical IQ is truly world-class when the spotlight shifts away from the elite.
