The 1961–62 European Cup was the seventh season of the European Cup, UEFA's premier club football tournament. The competition was won by Benfica for the second time in a row, beating Real Madrid 5–3 in the final at the Olympisch Stadion, Amsterdam, on 2 May 1962.{{cite news |url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/0219-0e8c04f35082-a8df3b001065-1000--eusebio-stars-in-benfica-s-second-triumph/ |title=Eusébio stars in Benfica's second triumph |website=UEFA |date=1 September 2014 |access-date=27 September 2024}} This outcome meant that Real Madrid became the first team to win and lose European Cup final. Ferenc Puskás scored his second hat-trick in the final of the competition, and as of 2024, is the only player to achieve this feat, as well as being the only final hat-trick scorer to end up on the losing side.{{cite web |url=https://theanalyst.com/2024/05/champions-league-final-hat-trick |title=Who Has Scored a Champions League Final Hat-Trick? |website=TheAnalyst.com |first=David |last=Segar |publisher=Opta Analyst |date=23 May 2024 |access-date=27 September 2024}}
Malta entered its champion for the first time this season.
Teams
A total of 29 teams participated in the competition.
For the first time since European Cup inaugural season Spain was represented by only one team – ever present Real Madrid. Benfica qualified as title holders and since they were also Portuguese champions, runners-up Sporting CP were invited. CDNA Sofia appeared in the sixth edition of European Cup, with only Real Madrid having more appearances in the competition.
Austria Wien, Boldklubben 1913, Tottenham Hotspur, Valkeakosken Haka, Monaco, Hibernians, Feyenoord, Górnik Zabrze and 1. FC Nürnberg made their debut in the competition, while Juventus, Panathinaikos and Fredrikstad returned to the tournament from previous edition.
Servette and Partizan returned to the tournament for the first time since 1956, while Spora Luxembourg and Vasas returned to the competition after five and four years, respectively.
All participants were their respective associations champions, except for Boldklubben 1913, IFK Göteborg and Sporting CP. The first two were leading their respective leagues in spring, but finished third in autumn of 1961.{{cite web |url=https://www.nifs.no/tabell.php?countryId=5&toDate=1961-06-11&tournamentId=34&stageId=2084 |title=NIFS - Norsk & Internasjonal Fotballstatistikk |language=no |access-date=9 November 2024}}
