14 Real Madrid have won the title for the 14th time, their victory against Liverpool meaning they have won all eight of their finals in the UEFA Champions League era.

4 On Matchday 1, Sébastien Haller became the first player to score four goals on his UEFA Champions League debut since Marco van Basten in November 1992 as Ajax won 5-1 at Sporting CP.

183 Cristiano Ronaldo surpassed Iker Casillas (177) for most Champions League appearances on Matchday 2, subsequently moving on to 183.

34 Sheriff's ground-breaking campaign – including a famous win at the Bernabéu – took the number of nations who have graced the group stage to 34.

6 Carlo Ancelotti has now won the competition six times; twice as a player with AC Milan, then twice as coach of both Milan and Real Madrid.

21 For the first time in 21 years, since 2000/01, Barcelona did not feature in the knockout stages.

3 Ajax, Bayern and Liverpool all advanced from the group stage with a 100% record, the first time more than one club has managed a perfect group stage in a single season.

5 Manchester City's 5-0 win at Sporting CP in the last 16 equalled the biggest margin of victory in a Champions League first leg.

3 There have been six hat-tricks in 2021/22, courtesy of Leipzig's Christopher Nkunku, Haller and two apiece for Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski.

11 Lewandowski struck three times in the space of 11 minutes during Bayern's 7-1 home win against Salzburg in the last 16, the third fastest Champions League hat-trick of all time.

Highlights: Bayern 7-1 Salzburg

22 Bayern's 1-0 loss at Villarreal in the quarter-finals halted the German side's record 22-match unbeaten run away from home in the Champions League. The previous high was 16.
