Madrid eventually reached the finals, where they lost to the sinister Benfica, led by the same Bela Guttmann.

But from year to year the lot bred teams for different pairs, until in 1986 there was a long-awaited meeting.
The plot of these matches in something similar to the fights of the 60's. Teams again exchanged minimum victories, but the tournament regulations during this time changed. Now the winner was determined in a penalty shootout, where more lucky Real Madrid.

Real began his career with a fairly simple group - Rosenborg, Olympiakos and Porto. Here it is immediately worth noting that then Rosenborg was a team of a completely different level. Norwegians scored 2 points less than Real, but still did not go beyond.
On the way to the final Real Madrid confidently figured out with two German teams - Bayer and Borussia.
The path of Juventus was much more dramatic. In the group stage, the Turinians were in the group to Manchester United, Feyenoord and Kosice. Bianconeri reached the playoffs only as the best second place. And immediately the team hit the Dynamo Kiev. Those matches fans with experience remember well and with great regret.
Well, by analogy with the current Champions League - enchanting confrontation with Monaco in the semifinals and the final with Real Madrid. How did the teams play it? That's right, the next 1: 0.

The return game just did not leave Madrid's chances, because Juve scored three times. Already at the very end of the match Zinedine Zidane scored a goal of prestige, which had no effect on anything.

And again Juventus has furnished Madrid! After the next 1-0 and a rare goal from Ivan Elgera, the game moved to Turin. There, Juve also answered with a goal and the strongest was revealed in over-times.
Probably, Real Madrid was preparing for the penalty shootout when Uruguayan striker Marcelo Salayeta scored the decisive goal, five minutes before the end of the over-time. However, none of the teams of fame in that season did not win, because Juve flew immediately from Liverpool.

Perhaps, at this group stage met not the strongest Real Madrid and Juventus. A year later, Cristiano Ronaldo will move to Madrid, and Juventus will rain in three seasons. And while the Turinians were "contented" with feverish seasons, Amauri in the attack and the hopeless dominance of Inter.
Despite all this, in the group of more reached Juventus, who twice managed to offend Real Madrid - both at home and away. Especially successful was Del Piero, who scored three goals in these two matches.
Then Real Madrid crashed Liverpool, and Juventus at the same stage 1/8 finals lost to Chelsea. As we recalled, the teams met, going through their worst periods in a decade.

Now Real Madrid was stronger. Especially tried Cristiano Ronaldo, who three times signed at the gate of Buffon.
