REAL MADRID WERE CROWNED CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE IN PARIS ONCE MORE. FOLLOWING AN IMPRESSIVE GROUP STAGE WITH INTER, SHERIFF AND SHAKHTAR DONETSK, THE TEAM ENJOYED THREE MAGICAL NIGHTS AT THE SANTIAGO BERNABÉU AGAINST PSG, CHELSEA AND MANCHESTER CITY TO MAKE THE FINAL AGAINST LIVERPOOL.

Four years on from the Decimotercera, Real Madrid and Liverpool crossed paths in the final once again. The first half finished goalless thanks to the imperious Thibaut Courtois, who was named man of the match in the final. In the second, Ancelotti's team went ahead when Vini Jr. found the net to finish off a fine team move.
