This victory would have been their second Champions League success across four seasons as well as seeing them complete a second treble haul in their 130-year history and moving alongside Milan as the competition&#8217;s joint-second most decorated side.<\/p>\n<p>However, it was Carlo Ancelotti &#8212; affectionately known as &#8216;Don Carlo&#8217; &#8212; that was crowing at full-time. The much-travelled Italian tactician could easily be considered European football&#8217;s &#8216;GOAT&#8217; manager. This season will go down as history. It saw him complete the &#8216;big five&#8217; leagues &#8212; first manager to lift the Premier League, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Serie A and La Liga &#8212; and win a fourth European Cup medal, the most by a head coach.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [sky-bet-welcome-offer] does not exist -->\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t believe it.

Karim Benzema, this season&#8217;s top scorer, felt he broke the deadlock but his 44th minute effort was ultimately ruled offside.

The impressive 21-year-old Brazilian winger broke Liverpool&#8217;s hearts when he converted a Dani Carvajal low cross before the hour mark. Klopp&#8217;s swashbuckling outfit continued to huff and puff but they couldn&#8217;t beat an inspired Thibaut Courtois who made no fewer than nine saves, the most on record by a goalkeeper in a single Champions League final, he was deservedly named man-of-the-match.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/livescore-bet-bonus-code\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Live Score Offer<\/a>: Bet \u00a310, get \u00a320 in free bets<\/h2>\r\n<p><a href=\"\/en\/go\/livescore-bet?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1338920 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/media.www.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-1024x487.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-1024x487.png 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-768x365.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-110x52.png 110w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-147x70.png 147w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-66x31.png 66w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-80x38.png 80w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-180x86.png 180w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-380x181.png 380w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-1200x570.png 1200w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-240x114.png 240w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-1100x523.png 1100w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-85x40.png 85w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31-42x20.png 42w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2022\/04\/25131150\/1258435_1258435_Screenshot-2024-01-25-at-13.11.31.png 1498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/go\/livescore-bet?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Sign up at Live Score<\/strong><\/a> using this link<\/li>\r\n<li>Place a \u00a310 bet on sportsbook, min odds 1.5 bet<\/li>\r\n<li>Claim your \u00a320 bonus\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<p>*New members. \u00a310 min deposit &amp; bet on sportsbook, placed &amp; settled at 1.5 min odds within 14 days of sign-up.

Real had to get past Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City just to be at this showpiece event. By surviving their fellow \u2018super clubs\u2019 this success will surely go down as one of the more legendary runs in tournament history. Real have now won football&#8217;s most demanding club competiton twice as more as the next most successful club (Milan), whose sixth and seventh titles were claimed by Ancelotti, who continues to do things his own way. Not long before the knockout phase began there were some calling for his resignation, those voices were not heeded, instead by staying the course he&#8217;s certain to be given the freedom of Madrid especially as his previous European Cup with Real was the mythical &#8216;Decima&#8217;.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real Madrid were crowned European champions for a record-extending 14th time after running out 1-0 winners over Liverpool at the Stade de France this evening.
