LIVERPOOL face Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Kiev.
Real Madrid and Liverpool go head-to-head in tonight’s Champions League final.
All eyes will be on Kiev as the Reds attempt to chalk up their sixth European crown against a Real Madrid side looking to wrap up their third in a row.
While Zinedine Zidane’s men were always among the favourites for this year’s crown, Liverpool have come up on the outside thanks to the way Jurgen Klopp has shaped his exciting, young team.
Liverpool XI: Karius, Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson, Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum, Mane, Salah, Firmino.
Subs: Mignolet, Clyne, Klavan, Moreno, Lallana, Can, Solanke.
Real Madrid XI: Navas, Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Marcelo, Casemiro, Kroos, Modric, Isco, Benzema, Ronaldo.
Subs: Casilla, Nacho, Bale, Theo, Lucas, Asensio, Kovacic.
STRANGE…
19:28: Not quite sure what’s going on with Gareth Bale. The Welsh international didn’t come out to warm up with the rest of the Real Madrid substitutes.
Cue the ‘Gareth Bale to Manchester United’ headlines, folks.
BANNER AWARDS
19:25: I’ve seen some brilliant Liverpool banners around Kiev this week and some truly awful ones. I’m still trying to decide which camp the one above falls into. Thoughts?
