Real Madrid on Saturday night won its 11th UEFA Champions league.  Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid 5-3 on penalty kicks after extra time to win its record eleventh UCL.


Ramos became the first defender in history to score in two UEFA champions league finals, while Ronaldo edged-out his archrival, Lionel Messi, to become a player with three goals from three different UCL finals.

According to UEFA, “Ronaldo has also broken clear of Lionel Messi in the all-time UEFA Champions League goalscoring stakes, with 93 to his name compared with the Barcelona man’s 83 – both players having begun the campaign on 77 goals. Ronaldo leads Messi 94–83 in the European Cup overall, including qualifying, for the competition’s 61 seasons”.

Zidane joined two enviable companies, as he became the seventh man in history, to have won the UCL as a player and as a coach. He also became the eight man ever, to have won the UCL in his first coaching season at a club.
