Real Madrid-Liverpool | Courtois’ immortal trick

Win as if it were law

Present in the final, it was not possible to think that Madrid would lose. And he didn’t. Without being better than Liverpool,

as against PSG, Chelsea or City, he won a new title that further proves his legend.

The match could have fallen on the ‘red’ side, but as always it ended in white.
