The '''2005–06 UEFA Champions League''' was the 51st season of [[UEFA]]'s premier European club [[Association football|football]] tournament, the [[UEFA Champions League]] and the 14th since it was rebranded from the European Cup in 1992. 74 teams from 50 football associations took part, starting with the first qualifying round played on 12 July 2005.


The tournament ended with a [[2006 UEFA Champions League final|final]] between [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] at [[Stade de France]], [[Saint-Denis, Seine-Saint-Denis|Saint-Denis]], on 17 May 2006. Barcelona won 2–1 with [[Juliano Belletti]] scoring a late winner. Arsenal had taken the lead through a [[Sol Campbell]] header in the 37th minute, despite [[Jens Lehmann]] being sent off in the 18th minute. [[Samuel Eto'o]] brought Barcelona back on level terms in the 76th minute before Belletti scored the winner five minutes later.
Perhaps the biggest upset was the 1999 winners [[Manchester United]] finishing bottom of their group at the first hurdle, an unusual occurrence for a team who won the competition in the past while the biggest surprise was small time Spanish club [[Villarreal CF]] reaching the semifinals in the first champions league campaign in their history.


The defending champions were [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]] and as they did not qualify by their league position, UEFA gave them special dispensation and allowed them to defend their title from the first qualifying round of the competition. They made the group stage and progressed but were eliminated by [[S.L. Benfica|Benfica]] in the first knockout round. From the following season, UEFA reserved a berth in the group stage for the defending champions regardless of their league position.
==Qualifying Rounds==
===First qualifying round===
{{see also|Liverpool F.C.’s 2005-06 Champions League qualification}}
Title-holders [[Liverpool F.C.]] as well as 23 league champions from countries ranked 27 or lower on the 2004 [[UEFA coefficients|UEFA ranking]] were drawn against each other and played two matches, home and away, with the winners advancing to the second qualifying round. Though they finished fifth in the [[FA Premier League|English Premiership]] in [[FA Premier League 2004-05|2004-05]] (usually only four English teams are allowed in), Liverpool was granted a special exemption by [[UEFA]] as the holders, whereby they were placed into the first qualification round.

16 winners from the third qualifying round, 10 champions from countries ranked 1–10, and 6 second-placed teams from countries ranked 1–6 were drawn into 8 groups of 4 teams each. Normally two teams from the same association cannot be drawn in the same group. The only exception is Liverpool because of their abnormal qualification as title holders because not having finished in the top four of the English league, Liverpool were not given "association protection" in the tournament (for group stage, the only team from the same association they could be drawn with was Chelsea, as the rest were in the same seeding pot). The top 2 teams in each group advanced to the Champions League knock-out stage, while the third-placed teams advanced to the Round of 32 in the [[2005–06 UEFA Cup#Knockout stage|UEFA Cup]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2005-08-25|title=Liverpool drawn against Chelsea|url=http://www.theguardian.com/football/2005/aug/25/championsleague200506.championsleague1|access-date=2021-10-26|website=the Guardian|language=en|archive-date=2023-08-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230827220047/https://www.theguardian.com/football/2005/aug/25/championsleague200506.championsleague1|url-status=live}}</ref>

The 2005–06 UEFA Champions League was the 51st season of UEFA's premier European club football tournament, the UEFA Champions League and the 14th since it was rebranded from the European Cup in 1992. 74 teams from 50 football associations took part, starting with the first qualifying round played on 12 July 2005.

The tournament ended with a final between Arsenal and Barcelona at Stade de France, Saint-Denis, on 17 May 2006. Barcelona won 2–1 with Juliano Belletti scoring a late winner. Arsenal had taken the lead through a Sol Campbell header in the 37th minute, despite Jens Lehmann being sent off in the 18th minute. Samuel Eto'o brought Barcelona back on level terms in the 76th minute before Belletti scored the winner five minutes later.

The defending champions were Liverpool and as they did not qualify by their league position, UEFA gave them special dispensation and allowed them to defend their title from the first qualifying round of the competition. They made the group stage and progressed but were eliminated by Benfica in the first knockout round. From the following season, UEFA reserved a berth in the group stage for the defending champions regardless of their league position.

Association team allocation[edit]

A total of 74 teams from 49 of the 52 UEFA member associations participated in the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League (the exception being Liechtenstein, which does not organise a domestic league, Andorra and San Marino). The association ranking based on the UEFA country coefficients was used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:[1]

  • Associations 1–3 each have four teams qualify.
  • Associations 4–6 each have three teams qualify.
  • Associations 7–15 each have two teams qualify.
  • Associations 16–50 (except Liechtenstein) each have one team qualify.
  • As the winners of the 2004–05 UEFA Champions League, Liverpool gained entry an additional entry despite not qualifying through their domestic league position. They were entered into the 1st qualifying round.

Association ranking[edit]

For the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League, the associations are allocated places according to their 2004 UEFA country coefficients, which takes into account their performance in European competitions from 1999–2000 to 2003–04.[2]

Apart from the allocation based on the country coefficients, associations may have additional teams participating in the Champions League, as noted below:

  • (UCL) – Additional berth for the 2004–05 UEFA Champions League winners

First qualifying round[edit]

Title-holders Liverpool, as well as 23 league champions from countries ranked 27 or lower on the 2004 UEFA ranking, were drawn against each other and played two matches, home and away, with the winners advancing to the second qualifying round. Though they finished fifth in the Premier League in 2004–05 (usually only four English teams are allowed in), Liverpool were granted a special exemption by UEFA as the holders, whereby they were placed into the first qualification round.

Group stage[edit]

Location of teams of the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League group stage.
Brown: Group A; Red: Group B; Orange: Group C; Yellow: Group D;
Green: Group E; Blue: Group F; Purple: Group G; Pink: Group H.

16 winners from the third qualifying round, 10 champions from countries ranked 1–10, and 6 second-placed teams from countries ranked 1–6 were drawn into 8 groups of 4 teams each. Normally two teams from the same association cannot be drawn in the same group. The only exception is Liverpool because of their abnormal qualification as title holders because not having finished in the top four of the English league, Liverpool were not given "association protection" in the tournament (for group stage, the only team from the same association they could be drawn with was Chelsea, as the rest were in the same seeding pot). The top 2 teams in each group advanced to the Champions League knock-out stage, while the third-placed teams advanced to the Round of 32 in the UEFA Cup.[5]

Tiebreakers are applied in the following order:[6]

  1. Points earned in head-to-head matches between the tied teams.
  2. Total goals scored in head-to-head matches between the tied teams.
  3. Away goals scored in head-to-head matches between the tied teams.
  4. Cumulative goal difference in all group matches.
  5. Total goals scored in all group matches.
  6. Higher UEFA coefficient going into the competition.

Real Betis, Villarreal, Udinese, Thun, and Artmedia made their debut appearance in the group stage.[7]
