Real Madrid were crowned champions of Europe for a 15th time at Wembley, with second-half goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr seeing off a brave Borussia Dortmund for a 2-0 Champions League final victory.
The German side hit a post and created two more clear chances in the first half as they threatened a big upset but Real have a unique relationship with this competition and, with an improved display after the interval, they finally came to life.

Vinicius has stepped up to become the key player for Madrid in the Champions League in the past few seasons and his goal epitomised his rise to the top of the footballing world. His success has put him alongside Messi as one of the Champions League’s best players.
Bellingham again went close with a deflected shot from inside the box as Real suddenly oozed confidence. Kobel had to save from Kroos and then Eduardo Camavinga and then Nacho. He couldn’t stop Vinicius Jr’s strike though – a clinical finish to seal it after Bellingham capitalised on Maatsen’s error to find him in space.

The Decimoquinta secured.
