Tearful Real Madrid players were overcome by emotion
after defying torrents of attacks from Borussia Dortmund to win 2-0 at Wembley
as Madrid bagged a 15th Uefa Champions League title.
Dani Carvajal, who scored Real Madrid's first goal,
said, “I don’t know what to say, just tremendous happiness. We knew it would be
a tough game, and the first half they were very superior but we got out alive.
But we knew our moment would come, and it did, and we have the 15th (Champions League
title for Real Madrid)."
England midfielder Jude Bellingham also weighed in.
"I have always dreamed of playing in these games.
You go through life and there are so many people who say you cannot do things.
I was alright until I’ve seen my mum and dad's face there. My little brother is
there and I'm trying to be a role model for him. I cannot put it into words.
The best night of my life."
Dortmund despite dominating the tie more so in the first
half, wasted a plethora of chances that should have seen them 3-0 up at the break,
and they were made to rue their missed chances, crushing their dreams of adding another Uefa
Champions League title, to the 1997 collection.
