Two goals from Christiano Ronaldo and another deflected long-range effort from Brazilian Midfielder Casmiero ensured that the Spanish giant made history at Cardiff on Saturday by becoming the first team in the modern era to win the UEFA Champions League back to back.
The Zidane lead team defeated Juventus by 4-1.
Real’s record 12th triumph in this competition – and third in four seasons – was predictably orchestrated by Ronaldo, who has now scored in three different Champions League finals.
Ronaldo stopped a bright Juve opening in its tracks as he swept in Dani Carvajal’s pass after 20 minutes, before Mario Mandzukic levelled with one of the great Champions League final goals, firing a sublime overhead kick beyond Real goalkeeper Keylor Navas.
Real were unstoppable after the break, restoring their lead through Casemiro’s deflected shot before Ronaldo scored at the near post from a cross by the outstanding Luka Modric.
Juventus’ misery increased when substitute Juan Cuadrado was sent off for a second caution after a clash with Sergio Ramos before substitute Marco Asensio emphasised Real’s superiority with a precise finish in the last minute.
Real coach Zinedine Zidane has now won back-to-back Champions Leagues – as well as this season’s La Liga title – since he took charge in January 2016.
