Congrats to Real Madrid on #14!
Courtois made all the difference tonight, but Liverpool just didn't have enough even though they were the better side for long stretches of the game. That said, the two times they were tested, they failed pretty badly.
Also, can someone please tell Glenn Hoddle that Real is pronounced 'Ray-al' and not 'Reel'....?

As I said before, so much luck goes to that Real Madrid side.
The first goal, that was offside (I don't think it was), was a complete mess of a goal. It's just magical how the ball ends up in Benzema's feet out of nowhere.
Even the actual goal, was a shot from Valverde, that he completely missed, and luckily Vinicius was there for the tap in.
Wonder how Liverpool fans feel, after their team being superior, and still loosing the final. Probably the same way City, Chelsea and PSG fans feel lol.
Courtois man of the match, by a gigaParsec.
As for Mbappe, it makes no difference. If he was to join Real, he would rather want them to lose, so he could become the main man when he joined, and be the guy to help RM lift the trophy again. With Real winning it now, with a team that has been more lucky than good, the pressure for next season is a lot higher.

Congrats to Real Madrid, the mentality of the squad is incredible and many of the players there have now won five Champions Leagues at the club, Ancelotti has been magnificent as well.
Surprised it hasn't been mentioned much here but what happened before the match that led it to be delayed?, I heard one of the turnstiles broke down which led to many fans left queuing for hours, plus being tear-gassed!

Just to let you know, the Champions league started on Friday...
Vikingur Rejk... beat Inter Club D'Es... 1 - 0
The idiot BBC Sports fixture page doesnt show the full names as usual and theres no link to a match report... 🙄
I'm guessing Reykjavik won. I've got no idea who lost though!

Hearts play Zurich in Edinburgh tonight for a place in the Europa League group stages, but need to overturn a one goal deficit to do so. If they succeed, it will be the first time Hearts have reached the group stages since 2004.

'Dogged Rangers fight way to place with big boys'
PSV were profligate, but that will matter little to resolute Rangers as they look forward to Champions League groups, writes Tom English.

Total humiliation for Rangers in the Champions League tonight, and a 6-minute hat-trick for Mo Salah.
Apparently it's only the second time in Rangers' history that they've conceded 7 goals, the last time being in 1957.
Liverpool are not even top of the group, and yet Rangers now sit at the foot of the group with a goal difference of -15 after just 4 games, and zero points.
Celtic, their famous local rivals, also sit at the bottom of their group, -7 goal difference and 1 point.
Scotland may have two teams in the CL for the first time since 07/08, but sadly they've never been weaker.
