The final of the Champions League between Liverpool FC and Real Madrid was coming up.

Toni Kroos reacted with incomprehension to ZDF questions.

Munich/Paris – Liverpool FC and Real Madrid met in the final of the Champions League at the Stade de France in Paris.

The two teams already faced each other in Kyiv in 2018 - at that time the royal team won 3-1.

And today?

Was it the Madrilenians again?

Real won 1-0.

It will be interesting to see what the protagonists will say after the Champions League final.

With Jürgen Klopp there was a trainer on the sidelines at the Reds who likes to talk a lot.

Will he also report on Sadio Mané's future today?

The offensive star is very hotly associated with FC Bayern.

But Toni Kroos and David Alaba in the Real Madrid jersey are also likely to comment.

It would be Kroos' fifth triumph in the premier class if he stretched the pot into the Paris night sky after the game.

For Alaba it would be the third CL success overall.

In 2013 and 2020 he won the treble in the FC Bayern jersey.

We summarize for you the voices about the final of the Champions League from DAZN and ZDF.

Toni Kroos (Real Madrid) after the game on ZDF about...

... the victory:

"It's unbelievable, I have nothing to add.

I checked where my family is.

It's a very special title for me, everyone was in the stadium.

I once wanted all the children to be in the stadium.

That was the case today, it's indescribable."

… the pressure from Liverpool:

“We put up a great fight.

We knew Liverpool were a great team.

We won, that's it."

… the renewed question as to why Liverpool seemed stronger:

“You had 90 minutes to think about sensible questions.

Now you're asking me these shitty questions.

Insanity.

It's not surprising that you get in trouble against Liverpool.

We're not playing a group game here, it's the Champions League final.

Really bad.

Really bad.

You ask three negative questions first.

Then they know that you come from Germany.”

David Alaba (Real Madrid) after the game over...

... the title:

"Difficult to put into words.

Can't believe what this year has been like.

You come here with the dream of winning the Champions League.

Then this happens. Unbelievable.

Each final writes its own story.

It's always something special.

You can see the atmosphere, it's been like this for a week.

The faith we have this season is amazing.

We don't get nervous.

And that wasn't just the case today.

That's something special, this character here."

Toni Kroos at DAZN after the game over...

.. his feeling after the triumph:

"It's unbelievable, just unbelievable.

That was the first time that all my children were in the stadium.

That was my big goal.”

.... his new nickname 'Sir Toni Kroos' by expert Sandro Wagner and whether his family would also call him that:

“No, no.

Certainly not.

I'm just the father of the family.

I don't have a nickname there."

… the words of Real coach Carlo Ancelotti:

“He just said thank you.

He did that before the game.

I don't think there is a coach who is so close to the team.

We have to say thank you.”

Jürgen Klopp after the game at DAZN about ...

… the reasons for the defeat:

“To get straight to the point.

We had the clear number of shots on goal, but only three or four really good ones.

We have to blame ourselves for that.

Real exuded a brutal counterattack threat, so it wasn't easy.

When the goalie is man of the match, you know something went awry.

You can't explain the one save against Mo (

)."

...

"I know that we played a great season.

But the boys don't know yet, it will take a moment.

We narrowly failed in two competitions.

The fact that we got so far in all competitions was perhaps not helpful.

In the end we might have lacked the grains.

But that's hypothetical now, but congratulations to Real Madrid."

.

"It was tricky.

Thiago is only in pain.

We had a Spanish colleague flown in to give him injections, but then his foot suddenly went numb.

Then we got Naby

) fit and wanted to swap, but then his foot wasn't numb anymore.

A younger species from Jürgen Klopp would probably have reacted differently, but now I'm sitting it out."

..

"Ha, you will see one again, I can promise you that!"

Jordan Henderson after the game at DAZN about ...

... his mood after the lost final:

"We are very, very disappointed.

It's really hard to explain.

We had a lot of chances but we couldn't react after it was 0-1.

Unfortunately we couldn't score."

… the problems with Real's game:

"Yes, it was difficult because you always had to expect counterattacks.

In the end it's just disappointing."

… looking at the whole season:

"It's hard to think positively about this season because disappointment currently prevails.

But I hope that when the disappointment wears off, we can be proud of our performance.”

David Alaba at DAZN after the game over...

… his mood after winning the Champions League:

"It's indescribable, you can't put it into words."

Carlo Ancelotti (Real Madrid) after the game over...

... the triumph

: "We are super happy, it wasn't easy today.

What more can I say?

It was a great season, we have a great team, a great club.

There are many strong characters here.”

Carlo Ancelotti after the game at DAZN about ...

... the success and his emotions:

"I can't believe it.

We were very intelligent throughout the game today.

We haven't given up on our idea.

In the end we deserved to win because we didn't let Liverpool play to their strengths."

... the reasons for the win:

"We had to put a lot of heart into the game today - and we had to show a lot of intelligence on the pitch."
