International football competition
The 1956β57 European Cup was the second season of the European Cup, Europe's premier club football tournament. The π competition was won for the second time by Real Madrid, who beat Fiorentina 2β0 in the final at the Santiago π BernabΓ©u Stadium, Madrid, on 30 May 1957.
After the great success of the first tournament, six new nations entered representatives: Bulgaria, π Czechoslovakia, England, Luxembourg, Romania and Turkey. The Football League had not allowed Chelsea to enter in 1955, and continued its π stance on the European Cup as it being a "distraction". However, against the wishes of the FA, Manchester United entered π the competition as English champions, becoming the first English team to play in Europe.[1] An additional place was awarded to π third in 1955β56 La Liga Real Madrid as the competition's reigning champions, occupying the free berth left by Saar after π its reunification with West Germany. As a result, Spain became the first association to provide two representatives to the premier π European competition and it was only for Manchester United, who had won against Athletic Bilbao in the quarter-finals, that first π ever meeting between two sides from the same country in the competition didn't happen.
This edition was the first to utilize π play-off matches, after two legs were not enough to decide which team advances to the next round on three occasions: π Borussia Dortmund won 7β0 against Spora Luxembourg in the preliminary round, while Nice and Real Madrid won 3β1 and 2β1, π respectively, against Rangers and Rapid Wien in the first round.
