Liverpool FC were crowned as the Champions League champions on Saturday as they defeated Tottenham Hotspurs 2-0 in the final in Madrid. It is the first time since 2005 that the Reds have managed to win the Champions League. The team had earlier won the European Cup (Champions League) in 1977,1978, 1981, 1984 and 2005. This was the second fastest goal in a Champions League final behind Paolo Maldini's goal in 2005 finals. The Reds had no intention of making attacking moves and all their players pushed deep to defend the ball.
