The 2008 Champions League Final, held in Moscow, featured Manchester United and Chelsea in the competition’s first all-English final.

Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring for Manchester United with a header, but Frank Lampard equalised for the Blues before half-time.

The match ended 1–1 after extra time, leading to a dramatic penalty shootout. Ronaldo missed his spot-kick, but Chelsea captain John Terry slipped and missed the potential winner.

Edwin van der Sar then saved Nicolas Anelka’s penalty, giving United a 6–5 shootout victory. It was Manchester United’s third European Cup title and continues to be seen as a memorable night in Champions League history.

The 2019 Europa League Final, held on May 29 in Baku, saw Chelsea defeat Arsenal 4–1 in an all-English showdown.

After a goalless first half, Olivier Giroud opened the scoring for Chelsea in the 49th minute with a header from Emerson’s cross. Pedro doubled the lead in the 60th minute, finishing a fine pass from Eden Hazard.

Hazard then converted a penalty in the 65th minute following a foul on Giroud by Ainsley Maitland-Niles. Arsenal briefly responded with Alex Iwobi’s powerful strike in the 69th minute.

However, Hazard sealed the victory with his second goal in the 72nd minute, assisted by Giroud. This win secured Chelsea’s second Europa League title and guaranteed their qualification for the 2019/20 Champions League.

The 2019 Champions League Final, held on June 1 in Madrid, saw Liverpool defeat Tottenham Hotspur 2–0 to secure their sixth European Cup title.

The match began dramatically when Mohamed Salah converted a penalty in the second minute after Moussa Sissoko handled the ball inside the box.

Tottenham dominated possession but struggled to break down Liverpool’s defence, with goalkeeper Alisson making crucial saves throughout.

In the 87th minute, substitute Divock Origi sealed the victory, capitalising on a corner that wasn’t cleared. Virgil van Dijk’s commanding performance earned him the Man of the Match award.
