Which club did Liverpool beat in the 2019 UEFA Champions League final?

Liverpool beat Tottenham Hotspur in the 2019 UEFA Champions League final.

Liverpool won 2–0 at Madrid’s Estadio Metropolitano on June 1, 2019. Mohamed Salah scored from a penalty in the second minute after Moussa Sissoko was judged to have handled the ball. Divock Origi sealed the victory in the 87th minute after Tottenham failed to clear a corner.

The triumph delivered Liverpool’s sixth European Cup, and it was manager Jürgen Klopp’s first trophy with the club. Liverpool had lost the previous season’s final to Real Madrid, so the victory was also a major redemption moment for the squad. Virgil van Dijk was named man of the match by UEFA.

Tottenham were appearing in their first European Cup final, while Liverpool were contesting their ninth overall and second in succession. The all-English final was only the second in Champions League history after Manchester United versus Chelsea in 2008. Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea were not Liverpool’s opponents in this final.
