"There are no miracles". With the focus of the final round of Group A of the Champions League group stage this morning, Manchester United lost 0:1 at home to Bayern Munich, which brought the "Red Devils" to an abrupt end to the Champions League journey this season. Manchester United have only 1 win, 1 draw and 4 losses in their 6 Champions League group games this season, ranking at the bottom of Group A, and even failed to qualify for the Europa League round of 32 knockout round. This is the second time they have done so since the 2005-2006 Champions League group stage.
Since the Champions League was established in the group stage in the 1991-1992 season, there have been several seasons when there have been unexpected exits by big teams. Football fans have a lot of questions about when the last time big teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich failed to qualify for the Champions League group stage. Today, I will take stock (Note: The Champions League group did not qualify and did not play the Champions League is not the same concept. Therefore, I will not count some big teams that did not play in the Champions League due to poor results in the domestic league, only the time when they participated in the Champions League but did not qualify from the group).
1. Real Madrid
In the history of participating in the Champions League, Real Madrid has never been eliminated from the group stage. In other words, as long as Real Madrid participates in the Champions League, they will definitely qualify from the group stage. This result ranks first in the history of the Champions League. It is worth mentioning that Real Madrid stopped in the 1 8 finals for 6 consecutive years from 2005 to 2010, and was ridiculed by fans as "16 Lang of the Champions League". But this is also their lowest floor.
2. Barcelona
The last time Barcelona failed to qualify for the group stage of the Champions League was last season. Last season, they were in Group C with Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Viktoria Plzen. The "Red and Blue Army" only completed 2 double kills against Plzen, 1 draw and 1 loss against Inter Milan, plus two defeats against Bayern Munich, they only achieved 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses to rank 3rd in Group C, failed to qualify from the group, and could only participate in the Europa League round of 32 knockout round, and were also kicked out by Manchester United in the Europa League round of 32 knockout round. However, in this season's Champions League group stage, Barcelona was ashamed and courageous and qualified from Group H one round ahead of schedule.
3. Bayern Munich
The last time Bayern Munich failed to qualify for the Champions League group stage was in the 2002-2003 season. At the time, they were in the same group as AC Milan, Real Deportivo Sporting and Lens. As a result, "The Southern King" was beaten by AC Milan and Real Deportivo Sporting respectively, and only managed to draw two of the two legs against Lens. In the end, they were eliminated from the group stage that season with a record of 2 draws and 4 losses.
4. Manchester City
The last time Manchester City failed to qualify from the Champions League group was in the 2012-2013 season. At that time, they were placed in Group D with Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Ajax. As a result, the "Blue Moon" only achieved 3 draws and 3 losses, and was at the bottom of Group D, and was eliminated. Since then, they have qualified for every Champions League group stage and won their first Champions League trophy last season.
5. Liverpool
The last time Liverpool failed to qualify for the Champions League group stage was in the 2014-2015 season. At that time, they were in Group B with Real Madrid, Basel and Ludogorets. As a result, the "Reds" only achieved 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses, ranking third in Group B, and failed to qualify from the group. He can only participate in the Europa League round of 32 knockout round, and was also kicked out by Besiktas in the Europa League round of 32 knockout round.
