THEN TRY Quiz! Can you name every Champions League group winner since 2010/11?

It must be wonderful to be a Champions League club. It's not so cool if you're just a whipping boy.

Well, sure, if you're in a low-ranking league from eastern Europe – we've got clubs from Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan on the quiz today: welcome, lads – it must be wonderful to go up against the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. What an experience to be a part of and if you're lucky, get a point or two and make some memories.

But some of these clubs are from Spain, Germany, Italy, France… even one from England – the great Premier League – hasn't made it into the second round of the tournament. 

This might be the hardest quiz you try this week. Go on, we're sure you'll know more than you think…
