#9 Real Madrid 7-3 Eintracht Frankfurt - 1960

Rel
Real Madrid's all-conquering squad of 1960

Normally the most memorable matches are close battles fought with tenacity, but this final stands out for the sheer dominance by one side.

Real Madrid was undoubtedly the best team in Europe at the time, as they had won all four of the European Cups till then. Going into their fifth successive final they were huge favourites and so it proved to be.

Frankfurt who were huge underdogs surprisingly took the lead through Richard Kress but the goal woke up the Spanish giants.

They scored seven goals in the subsequent hour with Ferenc Puskas and Alfredo Di Stefano at the heart of it all.

Di Stefano scored a hat-trick and Puskas bettered him by scoring four goals which demolished the German outfit.

Till date, the Hungarian is the only player to score four goals in a European Final. Frankfurt did score three goals but the domination exhibited by Madrid cannot be understated.
