In a triumphant display, Real Madrid clinched their record-extending 15th Champions League title with a 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund at Wembley Stadium on Saturday. Goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Junior sealed the win, as manager Carlo Ancelotti celebrated his fifth Champions League triumph, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest coaches in the competition’s history.

Despite Dortmund dominating the first half and creating several chances, Real Madrid’s goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois made crucial saves, and Niclas Fullkrug’s shot hit the post, keeping the score level at halftime. Carvajal broke the deadlock in the 74th minute, heading in a corner from Toni Kroos, and Vinicius Junior doubled the lead nine minutes later, ensuring victory for Madrid.

Ancelotti’s win marks his third Champions League title with Madrid and his fifth overall, surpassing the achievements of other legendary managers. Players like Carvajal, Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, and Nacho matched the record set by Paco Gento with six Champions League titles each.

Real Madrid President Florentino Perez celebrated the club’s continued dominance in European football and hinted at future success with potential signings like Kylian Mbappe and Brazilian rising star Endrick. Despite the defeat, Dortmund’s tactical approach under coach Edin Terzic highlighted their potential, though they ultimately failed to capitalize on their first-half opportunities.
