Real Madrid won the UEFA Champions League (UCL) title in 2022 after defeating Liverpool 1-0 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Mohamed Salah’s right-footed drive from close range to the bottom left corner was stopped by a great save by Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis in the 15th minute.<\/p>\n
Courtois produced another incredible save five minutes later, deflecting Sadio Mane’s stinging close-range shot into the post.<\/p>\n
After a VAR (video assistant referee) assessment in the 44th minute, Karim Benzema scored from the penalty area, but it was disallowed due to an offside call.<\/p>\n
The Reds dominated the first half of the final, but despite both teams having chances at each end, neither team was able to break the tie.<\/p>\n
In the 59th minute, Vinicius Junior scored the winning goal for Real Madrid.<\/p>\n
The kick-off was delayed for 36 minutes for security reasons, according to UEFA.<\/p>\n
The Spanish football club added their 14th Champions League trophy to their collection — five in the last eight years.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid have won the title in 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1966, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2014, 2016, 2017 and 2018.<\/p>\n
Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti became the first to clinch four UCL titles.<\/p>\n
