champions league final

The last time both teams scored in a champions league final was 2018 when Real Madrid defeated Liverpool 3-1 to complete a champions league three-peat. In 2019, Liverpool would get back to the champions league final and this time they won by shutting out Tottenham 2-0 to start the drought. In 2020, Bayern Munich won 1-0 against PSG in late August. Then in 2021, Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the game for Chelsea to win the battle of Premier League teams against Man City. Then in 2022, Real Madrid defeats Liverpool once again but this time they shut them out 1-0. In 2023, Man City completed the treble by beating Inter Milan 1-0 with the help of Lukaku, who blocked his teammates shot. In 2024, Real Madrid won their 5th champions league title in the last 9 years with two second half goals to win 2-0. And in 2025, PSG completely destroyed Inter Milan 5-0 in their first season without Mbappe. Today we will find out if this streak continues when PSG plays Arsenal.

Lucas Moura's 96th Minute

May 8, 2019. Amsterdam. Tottenham trailed Ajax 3-0 on aggregate at halftime of the Champions League semifinal second leg. The home team with Matthijs de Ligt, Frenkie de Jong, Hakim Ziyech had been the story of the tournament up to that point, dispatching Real Madrid and Juventus en route to the semis. Spurs needed three goals in 45 minutes to advance. Lucas Moura the Brazilian forward who hadn't started a UCL knockout game ALL SEASON would score them all. Goal one: 55th minute, scrambled finish through traffic. Goal two: 59th, low driven shot. 2-2 on aggregate suddenly, but Ajax still going through on away goals. The clock kept running. 70 minutes. 80. 90. Stoppage time. Five minutes added. 95:30. Spurs worked a final ball into the box. Dele Alli flicked it on. Lucas Moura met it with his right foot and rolled it past André Onana into the bottom corner. Final whistle. Tottenham 3, Ajax 2. 3-3 on aggregate, advancing on away goals. Spurs were heading to their first-ever Champions League final against Liverpool, who had pulled off their own miracle 24 hours earlier. Two of the greatest comebacks in UCL history. Back-to-back nights. The greatest semifinal week the tournament has ever known. Shoutout to @bleachcreetch for the inspo!

The One Bayern Let Go

At 17, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia thought he had his big break in Germany. Bayern saw him, had the chance to sign him after his trial, but eventually passed. Then life took him somewhere completely different and he started playing in Russia. Then Russia invaded Ukraine, FIFA allowed foreign players to walk away from their contracts, and Kvara left behind the money & security of his club to go back home to Georgia and play for Dinamo Batumi. That move changed everything. After an incredible first season, Napoli grabbed him for just 13 million euros and he helped bring them their first Scudetto since the glory days of Maradona. Later he made the move to PSG, and now the full circle moment is complete. The same club that passed on him at the age of 17 just watched him put in a man of the match performance to help knock them out of the Champions League. Bayern let the Kvara slip away, but now they’re reportedly trying hard not to make the same mistake with his little brother as they flew him in just last week for a trial. Sometimes football really does write itself

Make Us Dream

May 7, 2019. Anfield. Liverpool walked into the second leg of the Champions League semifinal down 3-0 on aggregate to a Barcelona side led by Lionel Messi, fresh off a comprehensive home win one week earlier. They didn't have Mohamed Salah. They didn't have Roberto Firmino. They had a stadium that refused to give up. Divock Origi opened the scoring in the 7th. Half time substitute Georginio Wijnaldum scored twice in two minutes after the restart. Tied on aggregate. 56th minute. Anfield in delirium. Then, in the 79th, came one of the most audacious moments in football history. Trent Alexander-Arnold walked away from a corner kick at Liverpool's right corner flag. Then he turned, sprinted back, and quickly took the corner before Barcelona's defense had reset. Origi was unmarked at the near post. He turned it in. Liverpool 4, Barcelona 0. 4-3 on aggregate. The greatest comeback in Champions League knockout history. Three weeks later, Liverpool won the Champions League final, their sixth European Cup. Barcelona, ahead 3-0 from the first leg with the best player on Earth in their squad, never recovered. The Anfield Kop sang "Make Us Dream" all night. The Reds had and then some.
