Real Madrid became the first team to eliminate three English teams on the road to the European title, Chelsea in the quarter-finals, Manchester City in the semi-finals and Liverpool in the final, having previously been better than PSG.
Real coach Carlo Ancelotti once again tactically outplayed Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, as he did four years ago in the final in Kyiv.
Real Madrid left the initiative to the Liverpool players and sought their chance through counters and semi-counters. Liverpool had more shots (23-4), more shots on goal (9: 1), more corners (6-2), but Real had Thibaut Courtois on goal who had several great interventions to keep his own net intact. and for the 14th time ascended Real Madrid to the European football throne.
The "Kings" patiently waited for their chance and welcomed it in the 59th minute when Vinicius Junior scored the goal worthy of a European title.
