(CNN Spanish) -
Real Madrid consolidates a great season after beating Liverpool 1-0 this Saturday and winning the 14th Champions League title.
The Spanish team prevailed with a goal from Vinícius Júnior in the 59th minute at the Stade de France in Paris.
Those led by Carlo Ancelotti were overtaken at various times by Jürgen Klopp's team, but with a great performance by goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois he was able to keep a clean sheet and maintain the advantage.

The Champions League final, which was initially to be played in St. Petersburg and moved to Paris after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, started later than scheduled due to alleged inconveniences in the entrance of fans to the stadium.
It was delayed 35 minutes.
Liverpool dominated the bulk of the actions and control of the ball in the first half.
At minute 20, a shot by Sadio Mané crashed into the post after an excellent intervention by Courtois, who was able to touch the ball and avoid the Reds' goal.

A mix-up between Konaté and Allison Becker in the 42nd minute ended with Benzema's goal being disallowed for offside.
After an extensive review of the VAR that lasted around three minutes, the line judge's decision was confirmed.
