Jude Bellingham said his first taste of Champions League glory with Real Madrid was the “best night of my life” after the Spanish giants beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley. The England international had been frustrated by his former club for much of the showpiece occasion in his homeland, but Madrid once more found a way to win in the Champions League.
Dani Carvajal headed in from a corner before Bellingham teed up Vinicius Junior to fire into the far corner to deliver Madrid’s 15th European Cup. “I have always dreamed of playing in these games,” an emotional Bellingham told TNT Sports. “You go through life and there are so many people who say you cannot do things. I was alright until I saw my mum and dad’s face. My little brother is there and I’m trying to be a role model for him. I cannot put it into words. The best night of my life,” he added.
