In today’s video, we’re going to look at a number of instances where both clubs and nations came from absolutely nowhere to achieve what many would have thought to be impossible. From becoming league champions despite astronomical odds, to winning tournaments that they didn’t even qualify for, these are some of football’s greatest ever underdog stories. - Sport
Despite this video being cleared of copyright for over a week, CZcams retroactively hit sections of the Greece portion of the video, namely images and small amounts of edited footage used of the Final. I de idea to just trim these out instead of re-uploading. This is why that section of the video is missing/seems disjointed. I can only apologise for how this disrupts the flow of the video and hope you enjoy it despite this.
I would argue Chelsea champions league run and win in 2012 is truly an underdog story.
Last game of the group stages, chelsea could be eliminated by Valencia and sent to the europa league, they responded with a 3-0 win.
Last 16 round, losing to Napoli 3-1. Even after a 2-0 comeback, Napoli scored again and now chelsea needs 2 more goals to win. They made 4-1 in extra time.
Barcelona were the heavy favorites in the semis, somehow and someway chelsea wins 1-0 at home. Only to have barcelona score twice at the camp nou and a red card to terry. Ramirez scores out of nowhere and then torres!!
Final, bayern munich in their own backyard! They score at the 83 minute just for drogba to save chelsea from a corner in the 89!. Cech saves a penalty in extra time, then proceed to guess right in all 5 penalty directions and saves 2. Chelsea wins it. Against all odds since the very beggining
No kaiser schlauten ( i hope i spelled that right) is crazy. Those dudes won promotion and then won the top flight the next season. Even greater underdog story than leicester city
I desagree. Leverkusen has an european history, even got to CL final in 2002 and almost always have partecipated to EL or CL, Leicester before it's title was totally "unkown" in football's map, so to me, Leicester's tale is greater than Leverkusen.
@@madeinsicily6335 I agree with that. I wasn't talking about Leverkusen tho
