Real Madrid raised the European benchmark yet again by defeating Liverpool in Paris to win the Champions League for the third time.
The Spanish giants used a tactical masterclass to shut out Mohamed Salah and his teammates, with Thibaut Courtois in goal putting in a fantastic display.
While Courtois grabbed the headlines, the entire defensive line put up a tremendous effort to keep the game clean.
As a result, it only needed a single Vinicius Jr goal to seal the deal, as Carlo Ancelotti's team once again ascended the European mountain.
That gives the Galacticos a total of 14 trophies, which is not just more than anybody else, but also more than the team in second place.
For a handful of players on the team, Parisian glory meant winning their fifth title and etching their names into European history.
The European Cup is kissed by Thibaut Courtois.

Madrid has a dedicated chamber to hold their abundance of European trophies as a result of their incredible success, and the club gave us a glimpse inside in a recent video.
Florentino Perez, the club's president, is seen in the video laying the newest title on the podium alongside the club's past 13 European Cups.
It's without a doubt one of the best flexes we've ever seen in the world of football, so check it out in the video below:
Perez couldn't possibly appear much more arrogant, could he?
Madrid is now trying to solidify their position as Europe's most powerful club by completing the transfer of Aurelien Tchouameni from Monaco.
Madrid appears to have beaten Liverpool to the 22-year-signature, old's adding to an already impressive list of youthful players.
