Real Madrid Beat Dortmund To Win 15th Champions League Title
On Saturday, La Liga side, Real Madrid beat Dortmund 2-0 to win the Champions League (UCL) for the 15th time.
Defender Carvajal headed in from Toni Kroos’ corner on 74 minutes before Vinicius fired home to extend Madrid’s record as the most successful club in the competition’s history.
Madrid has won their last nine European Cup finals and the competition six times in the last 11 seasons.
However, not for the first time in that run, they had to rely on some good fortune as underdogs Dortmund were left to regret not making the most of their first-half chances bitterly.
Niclas Fuellkrug hit the post and Karim Adeyemi failed to convert a one-on-one with Thibaut Courtois.
Madrid, though, always seemed to find a way in Europe’s elite competition and made more history in the English capital.
Carvajal, Kroos, Nacho, and Luka Modric joined Real legend Paco Gento as the only players to win the European Cup six times.
Carlo Ancelotti also extended his record as the most successful coach in the competition’s history with his fifth title.
