Real Madrid have won a third straight Champions League title following a 3-1 win over Liverpool in the final played on Saturday, May 26.
Gareth Bale netted a brace including an audacious overhead kick to snag the limelight off Cristiano Ronaldo and Mohamed Salah who dominated all the pre-match headlines.
Karim Benzema opened the scoring in the 51st minute, deflecting a poor clearance from Loris Karius who endured a poor night.
Sadio Mane levelled for Liverpool just four minutes later, pouncing on a loosed ball in the box to score for the Reds.
After just coming on for Isco, Bale produced a sensational overhead kick in the 64th minute to put Real Madrid back in the lead.
The Welshman scored again with a fierce shot from outside the area which bounced off the hands of Karius.
