Champions League

Real Madrid's run is absolutely nuts...

As a Chelsea fan I was absolutely gutted when we conceded late to force extra (losing) time at the Bernabau but this is something else.

Plus... Pep is cursed.

Real have that certain je nais se quois...they get it done when the chips are down. Benzema scored a hat trick in 17mins to sink PSG, and we know what happened vs Chelsea.
Grealish should have scored twice late for City and ended it, but he missed once and Courtois made a great save on the other attempt. He also made another great save after that.
Vinicius Jr is one hell of a player also.

Liverpool get their chance at revenge in the Champs League Final after Sergio Ramos took Mo Salah out a few years ago with a questionable tackle...but I wouldn't be surprised if Real come from behind again and take the trophy.

There ain't no football like Champions League football !

Ahh...

That felt so good having to listen to quadruple talk all year.

BTW that's a Benzema goal if they're playing any not named Liverpool.

Courtois is Man Of The Match.
He was outstanding tonight.

Ever since the PSG matchup, Real had that look of a team that would not be denied.
Vinicius Jr will be a superstar soon

One-sided match statiscally for Liverpool, but Courtois made all the difference.

That's been their entire run...

Every team has outplayed them.

Courtois has just been brilliant and Benzema a talisman... sprinkle in some quality here and there and they just kept moving on.
