1976–77 UEFA Cup
The 1976–77 UEFA Cup was the sixth season of the UEFA Cup, a club football competition organised by UEFA (the Union of European Football Associations). It was won by Italian club Juventus, who beat Athletic Bilbao of Spain in the two-legged final; both sides won one leg of the tie, which finished 2–2 on aggregate, but Juventus' solitary goal in the second leg at San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao saw them win on away goals. It was the first time that a team from Southern Europe had won the competition.[1]
