(no idea about the answer!)

Chelsea was definitely not the first. I remember a CC first round tie 70/71 between Mönchengladbach and Everton that Everton won on penalties.

I don't remember any other but there might be some. The "unbeatability" of German teams on penalties is just a modern myth.

Correct.

IK Sleipner won the Allsvenskan in 1931 and now currently play in level 3.

It was 1938, wasn't it?

I don't have a question, so whoever has a good one, go ahead!

Nothing to do with Ajax, a respectable and historical team.

I have a question.

Which countries have produced a Champion that have won the league with negative goal difference.

There are six countries according to the book i have. Clue none are European.

For a Bonus point name the clubs.

USA? I guess the structure of the MLS might give a championship with a negative score.

DC United?

No Brazil.

Back before Brazil had a normal national championship.

Australia is a country that crossed my mind, too.

Have no idea, but here are some other options:

Mexico, South Africa, Senegal.

Interesting question.

It have to be countries that use (or used in the past) knockout tournament after regular season (if there is one)

Di_Gule · Post by **Di_Gule** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 20:05

UCL_Lover none of those

Fillow your correct in a way these teams that won there league won them via a cup system or a short league system (think Iceland).

I woud add to the list of guesses:
- San Marino (very convoluted play-off system defining the league champion);
- Mexico (also a mixed system with groups and play-off)

San Marino is wrong, as there is no European country above the correct ones.
Mexico not correct, too, as I mentioned it before and Di_Gule has already said that is wrong.
