The 2014 UEFA Champions League final was the final match of the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League, the 59th season of Europe's premier club football tournament organised by UEFA, and the 22nd season since it was renamed from the European Champion Clubs' Cup to the UEFA Champions League.
The match took place on Saturday, 24 May 2014, at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon, Portugal, between Spanish sides Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid. It was the fifth tournament final to feature two teams from the same association, the second all-Spanish final and the first between teams from the same city. Real Madrid won the match 4–1 after extra time, a wonder 93rd-minute header by Sergio Ramos, which cancelled out Diego Godín's first-half goal saved Real Madrid CF from defeat. In extra time with goals from Gareth Bale, Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo they won the Champions league. In doing so, Real Madrid secured a record 10th title (La Décima), 12 years after their ninth title.
As the winners, Real Madrid earned the right to play against 2013–14 UEFA Europa League winners Sevilla in the 2014 UEFA Super Cup. They also qualified to enter the semi-finals of the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup as the UEFA representative, ultimately triumphing in both competitions. The match is considered one of the greatest Champions League finals in history by the media.8 June 2023 Every Champions League final, ranked from worst to best https://www.goal.com/en/lists/ranked-every-champions-league-final-from-worst-to-best/14b424ryiryj21ptuaotpj1ha5 1 November 2024 Goal.com

Gareth Bale had Real's best chance just after the half-hour mark and it was only a few minutes later when Atlético punished this miss.Real Madrid 4 Atlético Madrid 1 https://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27383593 25 May 2014 BBC Sport When Atlético received a corner, it was routinely cleared by the Real Madrid defence, but only as far as the head of Juanfran, who headed the ball back into the penalty area and onto the head of Diego Godín, who caught Iker Casillas off his line with a looping header to make it 1–0 to Atlético on 36 minutes.Real finally secure La Decima http://www.espnfc.com/us/en/report/392450/report.html?soccernet=true&cc=5901 25 May 2014 ESPN FC
The second half saw Real pushing forward as they went in search of an equaliser to deny Atlético's first Champions League title, with manager Carlo Ancelotti making a double substitution to replace Fábio Coentrão and Khedira with Marcelo and Isco. Atlético defended with all players and Real missed several chances.Real Madrid beats Atletico 4–1 in Champions League https://news.yahoo.com/real-madrid-beats-atletico-4-1-champions-league-212736751.html 25 May 2014 Yahoo Sport Atletico's defence was finally breached in the third minute of stoppage time, after the regulation 90 minutes, by a pinpoint Sergio Ramos header into the left of the net from Luka Modrić's corner from the right. The match went on to extra time with no substitutions left for either team.
Real Madrid became even more dominant in extra time, which proved decisive after Ángel Di María's run on the left flank saw him dribble past three Atlético defenders and shoot at goal. Thibaut Courtois attempted to block the Argentine's shot but only managed to deflect the ball to Bale, who headed the rebound in from two yards out to put Real ahead for the first time, in the 110th minute. Real then added two late goals to the scoreline. Cristiano Ronaldo squared the ball to Marcelo, who scored with his left foot from inside the penalty area in the 118th minute. At the end of extra time, Ronaldo was fouled by Gabi for a penalty, which he converted into the left corner of the net for a record 17th goal in the tournament. Ronaldo became one of the few players to score and assist in a Champions League final. During the celebration for Ronaldo's goal, Varane kicked the ball towards Atlético manager Diego Simeone, who then ran onto the pitch in anger. Simeone was sent off and Varane booked for the incident.
This was the seventh UEFA Champions League final (not including the finals up to 1992, when it was known as the European Champion Clubs' Cup) to go into extra time and the first to be solved during this period, without the need for a penalty shoot-out. It was also the second highest-scoring final in the tournament's history as the Champions League, after the 3–3 draw between Milan and Liverpool in 2005, and provided the second biggest winning margin, behind Milan's 4–0 win over Barcelona in 1994.Mike Hammond UEFA Champions League final facts and figures https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/0250-0c510961ce15-2f139c4da8cc-1000--uefa-champions-league-final-facts-and-figures/ UEFA.com (Union of European Football Associations) 25 May 2014 25 May 2014
