AC Milan loss to Liverpool in the final of the Champions League of 2005 was bitter. After leading 3:0 at half time the team lost the title in a penalties shoot out. Two years later Milan got a chance to redeem its honor. The tournament of the 2006-2007 season ended in a final that brought these same two clubs together for a match. AC Milan beat Liverpool 2:1, settling the score. This was the 7th and last win so far of the European Cup (The Champions League) by Milan. An achievement that is only second to Real Madrid’s 12 wins of this cup.
