AB The Champions League finals, the most important football competition in the world, are a perfect global screen for Union ofEuropean Football Associations (UEFA), the European football government body. Through those finals, UEFA sends messages through the performance of a ritual that is increasingly complex with each year. The historic evolution of that ritual and its different elements helps to explain the configuration of a ‘neo-ritual’ or‘global ritual’ with the goal to articulate the idea of universal citizenship among football fans. The sport has become, in a short lapse of time, a very powerful globalization agent.
