Liverpool defeat Tottenham to win all-English Champions League final

June 2, 2019

Liverpool have claimed a 2-0 victory over Tottenham at Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano Stadium to win the 2018/19 Champions League.

Awarded a penalty in the opening minute after Tottenham's Moussa Sissoko was ruled to have handled inside the area, Mohamed Salah stepped up to give Liverpool the lead from the spot.

Substitute Divock Origi sealed the win in the dying stages, rifling a shot past Tottenham keeper Hugo Lloris to double Liverpool's lead.
