Summary

Before the starting of the season "Associazione Calcio Milan" changes its denomination to "Milan Associazione Calcio" and moved its Headquarters away from via Andegari 4 to via Gaetano Donizetti 24.[1] During 1962–63 season the players to empower the Italian champion team were Peruvian defender Víctor Benítez, from Boca Juniors, midfielder Giuliano Fortunato, from Lanerossi Vicenza, right winger Bruno Mora, from Juventus in exchange of Sandro Salvadore and Brazilian forward José Germano first ever black player to play in Italy,[2] loaned out to Genoa after few weeks.

In Serie A the team finished in a decent third place 6 points behind champions Inter, meanwhile in Coppa Italia the club is defeated in Eightfinals.

However the club made history in European Cup : first round against Lussemburgo is won by the squad with an infamous 14–0 with Altafini scored five goals in the second match of the series. In Eightfinals the next team was English champions Ipswich Town defeated thanks to a 3–0 home score in casa surpassing the defeat 1–2 in England. In Quarterfinals Turkish squad Galatasaray was defeated in both matches and also Scottish team Dundee F.C. with scores of 8–1 and 5–2 respectively.

In 1963 European Cup Final the rival was Sport Lisboa e Benfica, back-to-back champions: playing in Wembley Stadium. The squad closed the first time of the match with a 0–1 score against thanks to the superb bicycle-kick goal of Eusébio.[3] In the ssecond half Altafini with a pass from Rivera scored two times against Portuguese goalkeeper Costa Pereira. Captain Cesare Maldini, lift up the first European Cup trophy ever. Also, Milan was the first Italian club winning the tournament and the third after Real Madrid e Benfica after seven editionss.

Altafini reached the topscorer of the competition with a record of 14 goals not surpassed until 2003 by Ruud van Nistelrooy and in 2012 by Lionel Messi[4] which was only broken during the 2013–14 season by Cristiano Ronaldo, who managed 17 goals.[5]

After nine years President Andrea Rizzoli left the club to Felice Riva with four league titles and one Latin Cup in his pocket. Also, he erected Milanello the training club house in the province of Varese. Manager Nereo Rocco left the club and signed an agreement with Torino.
