A Por La Duodecima, indeed.

Real Madrid are the Champions of Europe ‘once again’. They had a spectacular season in which they broke all sorts of records. But the one record that matters the most is that they did the impossible by winning two Champions League titles back-to-back.

Real found themselves in the same scenario as they were almost a year ago when they faced Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final. They won that match on penalties with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring the winning spot-kick, claiming the elite La Undecima.

This year, the Merengues thumped Juventus 4-1 with Cristiano finding himself again under the spotlight. His brace was ever so important as Zizou's side won the Europe's top competition for a record 12th time. This title was even more special as no team had managed to win the modern era Champions League and defend it successfully.

This Madrid side led by Zidane is one of the greatest teams in the history of the beautiful game, and they will be looking forward to winning many more titles in the future.
