Gareth Bale came off the bench to score twice as Real Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1 to win the 2018 UEFA Champions League final at the NSC Olimpiyskiy in Kiev, Ukraine, on Saturday.
Bale’s goals added to Karim Benzema’s second-half opener, which came on the first of two costly errors by Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius. Sadio Mane equalised for the Reds, who lost star forward Mohamed Salah to injury in the first half after a clash with Real skipper Sergio Ramos.
A fourth triumph in the last five seasons made Real the first side since Bayern Munich in the 1970s to win the trophy three times in a row.
