The records flowed for Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinédine Zidane sidled up alongside coaching greats and Spain underlined its dominance; we devour the stats.
Madrid are the first team to make a successful defence of the UEFA Champions League title. Milan (1989, 1990) were the last club to pick up consecutive European Champion Clubs' Cups.
Madrid maintained their 100% success rate in UEFA Champions League finals, winning six out of six. AC Milan are the only other club to have appeared in six finals – only three of which they have won.
Before this season, all five of Madrid's previous wins had come in even-numbered years.
Madrid moved two clear of Barcelona as the UEFA Champions League-era's most successful club – with six wins to four. Barça have contested five finals, their one defeat coming in their first (1994 v Milan).
Other than Madrid, the only clubs to boast a 100% record in UEFA Champions League finals are one-time finalists Marseille, Porto and Internazionale.
Ronaldo's first of the night was Madrid's 500th goal in the UEFA Champions League – the first club to reach the milestone. Barcelona (459) and Bayern (415) are next on the list.
This is Real Madrid's 12th European Cup win, meaning they have now won as many titles as the next two successful sides combined! Milan have seven wins, with five apiece for Bayern, Barcelona and Liverpool.
