The 2011–12 UEFA Champions League is the 57th season of the UEFA Champions League, Europe's premier football tournament, and the 20th season since it was renamed from the "European Cup". The final venue will be the Allianz Arena, home of Bayern Munich and 1860 Munich, in Munich, Germany,although the stadium will be referred to as "Fußball-Arena München" for the match as UEFA does not allow sponsorship by companies that are not among its partner organisations. As part of a trial that started in the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League, two extra officials – one behind each goal – are being used in all matches of the competition.Barcelona are the defending champions. The winner earns a berth to the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup.
