Which German club won its first European Cup by beating Juventus in the 1997 final?

Borussia Dortmund won its first European Cup by beating Juventus in the 1997 final.

The match took place at Munich's Olympiastadion on 28 May 1997. Dortmund made a fast start through Karl-Heinz Riedle, who scored twice in the first half. Juventus pulled one goal back through Alessandro Del Piero, but Dortmund restored its two-goal advantage when substitute Lars Ricken scored almost immediately after entering the match.

The 3–1 victory delivered Dortmund's first European Cup, now known as the UEFA Champions League. Ottmar Hitzfeld's team had reached the final for the first time, while Juventus were defending champions after winning the competition in 1996.

The final also had a strong revenge element. Juventus had beaten Dortmund 6–1 on aggregate in the 1993 UEFA Cup final. Several players who had been on Juventus's side in that earlier tie, including Jürgen Kohler, Paulo Sousa and Andreas Möller, later helped Dortmund win the 1997 trophy.
