The 1991–92 season was the 93rd season for FC Barcelona.

Summary[]

The season is best remembered for the club's first-ever European Cup triumph, beating Sampdoria at Wembley Stadium with a score of 1–0 after extra time through a free-kick goal by Ronald Koeman.

In La Liga Barcelona had a poor start, losing 3 of their first 8 games, but the tide began to turn as Barcelona experienced a brilliant run, losing only 3 of their next 30 games. Going into the final matchday, Barcelona trailed Real Madrid by a point. Real Madrid lost to CD Tenerife 2–3, but Barcelona won their final game, securing a second consecutive title for the Catalonian club.
