Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final for the second time in three years as they won a dramatic penalty shootout 5-3 in Milan.


After 120 minutes of action ended in a 1-1 draw, Atletico's Juanfran was the unfortunate man to miss, allowing Cristiano Ronaldo to slot home the decisive spot-kick as Madrid won on penalties.

 

Madrid's victory means they are now 11-time European champions with Zinedine Zidane becoming the seventh man to win the tournament as both player and coach after only five months at the helm.

 

The breakthrough did arrive in the 15th minute, though, with Toni Kroos's free-kick flicked on by Bale before Ramos prodded his effort under Oblak from close range.

 

Despite Ramos appearing to have strayed narrowly offside, the goal stood to make him the first defender to score in two Champions League finals.
