Twitter Reacts as Real Madrid defeat Atletico to bag their 11th Champions League
May 29, 2016 at 8:39 AM
In an intense final match of UEFA Champions League between two Spanish outfits, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, the Los Blancos have won it. 120 minutes of football couldn’t separate the two sides and it ended 1-1 at the Extra Time, moving on to penalties. Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo scores the winning penalty as Real Madrid won 6-4 after penalties.
I’m not sure who is more confused here – Alicia Keys or the rest of the San Siro #UCLFinal

This is a strange game. Why is there so much space in midfield?
